The Weeping Cotoneaster tree is a small evergreen tree with weeping branches arching down to create a dome effect. Glossy small dark leaves give a good background to pretty white flowers in June-July which are loved by bees. Gorgeous bright red berries cover the tree in autumn giving much pleasure to the eye and providing food for wildlife during the winter especially birds including Thrush and Waxwings. Hybridus Pendulus is a hardy tree and is suitable for most gardens.
