    Can anyone enlightment on the name this plant? Sorry the picture isnot more descriptive to the bush as a whole, but the berries are just incredible. Spotted on a visit to Winkworth Arboretum on Friday.

    Hi Mark sorry I don't have a clue what the plant is called although I'm pretty sure someone will come along and tell you just what it is.
    Although I am able to welcome you and your good lady wife to our friendly forum. [​IMG]

    Thank you very much!! Definitely going to try and find one of these for the garden, together with the Callicarpa, will make for some beautiful autumn/winter colour.

    Also I highly recommend Winkworth Arboretum, it's near Godalming, and a lovely walk at this time of year, if occasionally a touch on the steep side!
