Cotoneaster dammeri likes well drained soil and soil that is either, clay, chalk, loam or sand. Although it can eventually grow up to half a metre in height it is more usually seen hugging the ground at 10-20cm high, and up to two and a half metres in wide making it a great ground covering shrub.
We would recommend planting, in every square metre, four plants. If you want better coverage then plant six plants per square metre or, for a fantastic carpet of Cotoneaster Dammeri, plant between nine and twelve plants per square metre. Adding Rootgrow when planting is a sure way of giving ypour young plants a great start.
If required, it is best to prune in spring once the frosts have finished, and before new growth starts to sprout. This will help reduce frost damage and any trimming evidence, as the new growth will cover this. Cotoneaster Dammeri plants are available as top quality pot grown specimens for planting at any time of year.
