Leycesteria formosa

An attractive deciduous shrub that performs well in a range of garden settings, valued for its fragrant red flowers.

Expect it to reach around 2m tall by 2m wide at 10 years. Happy in full sun, though it tolerates some shade on most soils, and grows well in reasonably drained soil. Notable for red fruits. Hardy in most UK gardens and the fruits provide food for birds.
