Flowering Period

Celastrus orbiculatus is a unique and seldom-seen deciduous climbing vine, prized for its stunning autumn foliage and striking, jewel-like fruits. This vigorous, twining vine features broad, bright green leaves that cascade from long, trailing stems, accompanied by subtle green flowers in the summer. However, the true spectacle occurs in fall, when the leaves transform into a rich butter-yellow, and the plant is adorned with clusters of mustard-yellow fruits that split open to reveal vibrant scarlet seeds. Ideal for a sunny wall, this plant offers both beauty and interest throughout the seasons. To ensure fruit production, both male and female plants are needed—your order will include a random selection of both sexes. Height: up to 10m (32ft). Spread: up to 8m (26ft). Note that the plant's height and spread will vary seasonally, so we list by pot size rather than fixed dimensions. The plant you receive may differ slightly from the example photos, depending on the time of year. An unusual deciduous, climbing vine that is rarely seen, Celastrus orbiculatus is grown for its spectacular autumn foliage colour and glossy, jewel-like fruits.

Grow in any well-drained soil in a sunny location. Water well until established. Grows to be a large climbing plant so allow it plenty of space and trim back as necessary. Can be allowed to climb up trees.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Dobies products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.

Unlike many companies, we publish all of our reviews - good or bad - to give you, the customer, total transparency and peace of mind.

What our customers say

"Very impressed with the quality of leek and broad bean seeds you sent. Excellent germination and look forward to a bumper crop. Will certainly be back."

E. Smyth

“I bought all my seeds, potatoes, etc. from your catalogue last year for my new ‘larger’ vegetable garden. I have to say I have never had such success in the garden. The germination was excellent; the quality of plant stock and produce is superb."

Sadie

“I am compelled to write to you and your staff for the exemplary service provided by your company, in an age where the word and term ‘service’ has lost its meaning.”
