Yes Hoy, it is really a shrub. Though often it is a very small one, it can reach up to 2m. if it grows as a creeping plant.

Lilium 'Orange Marmalade' in flower now with a snowy back drop..

I bought it as a refrigerated bulb at the RHS show at Tatton in June for October flowering. The cold has slowed it down

Temperatures down to -7 at least twice in the greenhouse in the last month but Ipheion 'Alberto Castillo' is looking well and even producing flower buds.

rose hips are the only fruit that reliably persists over winter here!
