Find cotinus suited to part shade, perfect for adding colour and shape where light levels vary. Great for creating a fuller, more finished look without choosing hard-to-grow plants.

Part shade can be tricky to plant well, but cotinus offers an easy way to bring colour and shape to those in-between spots. This selection helps you fill borders with shrubs that feel reliable, stylish and straightforward to grow.
