Mahonia aquifolium 'Apollo' is a compact, spreading variety of this evergreen shrub, perfect for planting at the back of borders or as ground cover in woodland gardens, where its glossy, uniquely shaped leaves will stand out. Known as the Oregon Grape, it also serves well as a low hedge, with its spiky foliage acting as a deterrent for unwanted visitors, both human and animal. In spring, the shrub is crowned with large clusters of bright yellow flowers, which later develop into attractive blue-black berries, providing a delightful treat for birds. This low-maintenance, easy-care shrub is perfect for filling those awkward garden spaces. Height: 1m (39"). Spread: 1.5m (59"). Culinary note: The ripe berries are too tart to eat raw but can be stewed with sugar or other fruits to make jelly or pies. They are often used to enhance the flavor of milder fruits or to create a lemonade-like drink. Young leaves can be simmered and eaten as a snack. Mahonia aquifolium 'Apollo' is just perfect for the back of borders. Or, if you're looking for groundcover, this easy-to-grow shrub will be just the job. Grow Mahonia plants in borders or containers in any rich fertile, well drained soil in full sun or semi shade. Although Mahonia plants are hardy they will appreciate a sheltered position away from cold, drying winds. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil.

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.
