Five Romantic Trees and Shrubs for Valentines

This week we celebrate Valentine’s day. St Valentine was a Priest who, during Roman Times was persecuted for marrying out of favour Christians.

This is my view on the best five current romantic trees or shrubs for this celebration of love.

A small oriental summer flowering dogwood tree with a distinctive horizontal tiered habit. Ideal for small gardens as a central tree within a lawned area.

This is currently winter flowering shrub with a spicy fragrance and spidery flowers, with colours of yellow, red and orange. Passion colures and great scent...Hamamelis means flowers with fruits The leaves of this plant are used medicinally as an astringent for skin conditions or tissue injuries

This evergreen shrub produces great winter scent right now. The secret is to hide it amongst other trees and shrubs near to a doorway. So, when you walk past the smell is gorgeous.
