i fell in love with a Cercis tree i saw recently in Airfield House. it was still a very vivid burgandy and i've since been trying to buy one but see that most types fade to green by this time of the year.. could you recommend a type that retains its colour throughout summer? also i would be planting it next to a wall and it would be a little exposed.. is this ok?

this tree/plant was planted by a neighbour who moved before i could ask him what it was.. its been about a year.. i'd really appreciate you telling me what it is as i really like it and want to move it into my garden but need to know soil/site preferences and how big it'll get

i want to plant an ornamental cherry but as i only have a very narrow bed against a south east facing wall, i think a cherry that can be trained against a wall would be best. i'd like a variety with dark reddish leaves and pink flowers if possible. could you suggest one?

I have some perennials that were bought for me in the last month but because of a bad back was unable to plant them as yet. Is it too late to plant them now? or could i plant them and give them a good mulch? or should i just cut them back and leave them in their pots and plant them in early spring?
