Mahonia nitens 'Cabaret' RHS AGM 2 litre

Mahonia nitens 'Cabaret'

Mahonia nitens 'Cabaret' is a compact, evergreen shrub with striking orange-red flower buds that open to golden-yellow flowers in late summer and autumn. The colourful, upright flower spikes contrast beautifully with its glossy, dark green, holly-like foliage, providing valuable late-season colour and nectar for pollinators. This unusual, slow-growing Mahonia is ideal for partially shaded borders, woodland gardens and large containers, bringing year-round structure without the size of traditional Mahonias.
