Looking for an evergreen shrub that can withstand wind? Cotoneaster franchetii, also known as Franchet's Cotoneaster, Orange Cotoneaster, Franchet's Cotoneaster, and Wintergreen, may be the answer! Native to southwestern China, this plant grows up to 3 meters tall and has shiny green leaves with dense whitish to yellowish hairs on their undersides. Its flowers are produced in corymbs of 5-15 together and its fruit is a red pome that is eaten by fruit-eating birds. Plus, a rose-tan dye can be obtained from its fruit. This plant can serve as an informal windbreak hedge in most situations and can be trimmed for added control. Learn more about this lovely shrub at http://plants.usda.gov.
