Cytisus Moyclare Pink 4.5 Litre Pot

Cytisus ‘Moyclare Pink’ – Soft Pink Broom for Bright Spring Colour

Cytisus ‘Moyclare Pink’ is a charming deciduous broom, producing a profusion of soft pink, pea-like flowers in late spring. The blooms cover the slender arching stems almost completely, creating a light and airy cloud of colour that brightens sunny borders.

The delicate pink flowers contrast beautifully with the plant’s fine green stems, giving the shrub a graceful, natural appearance. Its open, slightly arching habit makes it especially effective in informal planting schemes, gravel gardens, and coastal settings.

Brooms are particularly valued for their ability to thrive in poor, sandy soils where many other shrubs struggle. Once established, ‘Moyclare Pink’ is drought tolerant and requires very little maintenance.

Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, this hardy shrub performs best in lighter soils and open positions. Light pruning immediately after flowering helps maintain its shape and encourages healthy growth.

Elegant, resilient, and full of spring colour, Cytisus ‘Moyclare Pink’ is a superb choice for adding soft seasonal interest to sunny gardens.
