Centennial Cotoneaster

The Centennial Cotoneaster (Cotoneaster integerrima) grows to a mature height of 8-12’ in 15 years; crown width 12-15’.  Large quantities of bright rosy-red berries mature in early August and contrast strikingly with dark, lustrous foliage. Centennial is less susceptible to fireblight, which is fatal to Peking & hedge cotoneaster.  Recommended in multiple-row farmstead and single-row field windbreaks & wildlife habitat.  Performs well on a variety of soils.
