Escallonia Glowing Embers is an evergreen shrub that creates a showy look in the garden, largely down to the attractive colour in the plants foliage. An orange-red tint will show in Spring to begin the year with bright shades. Then, as the plant matures, colours of yellow and mid-green will form to create a greater balance to fit the colder months later in the year. Escallonia should be planted in moist, well-drained soil and kept in full sun at the best of times. Drier spells should see the plant being watered regularly, with the Winter months seeing you protect the plants foliage against lower, bitter temperatures.
