Cotoneaster - Many-Flowered
Cotoneaster - Many-Flowered The Many-Flowered Cotoneaster, Contoneaster multiflorus, produces small white flowers in spring (fragrance unpleasant), bright red fruit in autumn, and leaves turn a yellow fall color. The flowers have five petals and sepals and are usually borne in clusters. Many-flowered Cotoneaster is one of the few cotoneasters useful for its flowers. Many-Flowered Cotoneaster flowers bloom in early spring, and the fruit ripens in September through October. This upright shrub has a fountain-like weeping branch habit and prefers a moist, well-drained soil; tolerates alkaline soil. Cotoneasters are widely cultivated for their attractive growth habit, small white to pink flowers, and small but showy red to black fruit. The shrub can be used as a hedge, bank cover, in groupings, or planted in a mass.
