The Mahonia eurybracteata ganpinensis Soft Caress, to give it its full technical name, is a sensational Mahonia variety. It has won numerous other horticultural awards throughout the gardening industry, guaranteeing a superb new plant introduction to your garden.

Mahonia Soft Caress is the first Mahonia of its kind with spine-free leaves, which means it can be planted near paths or doorways without the fear of being prickled as you might with traditional Mahonia varieties that have holly-like leaves. If you brush past these, there will be no worries about any scratches, opening up many new planting positions and ideas where you may not have considered Mahonia previously. 'Soft Caress' is also compact and dwarf in nature, making it an excellent evergreen groundcover when planted en-mass.

Evergreen shrubs such as this are also ideal for larger patio planters, where they can provide interest all year round. Of course, it could simply be used to make an outstanding addition to either a sunny or partially shaded border. Being compact in nature, with its unusual texture and late-season flowering period, we also think it will look fantastic at the side of a garden pool, coming into its own as other plants may be finishing.

Mahonia Soft Caress is a compact, evergreen shrub, so it is ideal for larger pots, where it will provide year-round colour and interest.
