Mahonia fortunei Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: An easily grown shrub, it thrives in any good garden soil[11] including heavy clays. Prefers a semi-shaded woodland position in a damp, slightly acid to neutral humus-rich soil[200]. Plants are not very hardy in Britain, they do not succeed at Kew Gardens, but grow well in milder areas[11]. The young growth in spring can be damaged by late frosts. Plants are very tolerant of pruning and can be cut right back into old wood if they have outgrown their welcome[182]. Hybridizes freely with other members of this genus. The flowers are very sweetly scented[184]. Due to their habit of flowering in late autumn, fruits are rarely formed in Britain[11]. For further Mahonia fortunei gardening information |
