Cotoneaster lacteus (Parney Cotoneaster) is a large, dense, evergreen shrub with arching branches clothed in oval, leathery leaves, 2.5 in. long (6 cm), dark green above and white-hairy beneath. In late spring to early summer, the branches are studded with small pinkish white flowers held in large clusters. Attractive to bees and butterflies, they are followed by a heavy crop of red berries which are a favorite of birds in winter. Easy to grow and low maintenance, Cotoneaster lacteus is a great ornamental shrub for hedges or privacy screens, erosion control and perfect for attracting wildlife in the garden.

Otherwise known as the Herringbone Cotoneaster. Cotoneaster horizontalis is a low-growing shrub of spreading habit, with branches in a characteristic herringbone pattern. It is invaluable for covering shady walls or for covering banks. The leaves turn a vivid fire engine red in the autumn, a striking backdrop for the bright red berries, which persist into the winter. Cotoneaster horizontalis will tolerate a range of soil types - from the poor dry soils to moist fertile loams. For best results plant in full sun, however this shrub will happily grow under partial shade. Prune to shape in spring - removing older wood if necessary. This shrub has many strengths, and landscapers love it! It attracts wildlife to feed or nest, and birds love its berries. The leaves and berries provide autumn and winter interest. It is an all round tough plant suitable for problem areas ... suitable for exposed coastal planting, it tolerates full sun and sandy, drought-prone soils, it tolerates cold exposed locations, and it tolerates heavy clay soils. It will grow in the barest crack in a wall or paving stone. And it responds beautifully to bonsai treatment. There is some concern about its spread into the wild, with fears that it could become invasive if allowed free reign. This is unlikely to occur in the average garden situation. I've had one growing in my garden for some 15 years, during which time I have had no problems with uninvited seedlings!

- Wonderful as a ground cover and in foundation plantings. It has tolerance to dry conditions and salts in the soil. Cannot tolerate the hot humid conditions of the lower South. Plant in full sunlight and in a well drained soil. Excellent plant for planters and adjacent to retaining wall so the branches can hang over the sides of the container or the walls.
