Description

Known as the ‘Chilean Lantern Tree’, Crinodendron is an unusual and rare specimen shrub for a sheltered spot in acid soil. Even when not in flower, it makes a handsome feature, forming a large, evergreen shrub clothed in leathery, rich green, narrow leaves. But the real show starts in late spring when it produces extraordinary, lantern-shaped, pendulous flowers which hang elegantly from long stalks. The thick-petalled, waxy flowers are produced over many months, continuing until the end of summer. As well as the better-known, red-flowered species, this trio includes two rare and much sought-after varieties.

Ultimate height: 4–8 metres (13ft – 26ft). Ultimate spread: 2.5–4 metres (8ft to 13ft).

Crinodendron Trio comprises the following varieties:

  • Crinodendron hookerianum – The original species with vibrant red flowers set against deep green foliage.
  • Crinodendron ‘Ada Hoffman’ – An unusual selection with dusky-pink flowers.
  • Crinodendron ‘Alf Robbins’ – Much sought-after, rare variety – the only selection with pure white flowers.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow

Plant in fertile, well-drained, humus rich, acid soil in partial shade. In late winter, feed with a fertilizer which is slow releasing, and mulch with ericaceous compost, leaf mould or pine needles. After flowering, light pruning may be carried out to remove any dead, damaged or wayward shoots.
