Due to the sensitive and breakable nature of our products, it's understandable that damages may occur despite our meticulous packaging methods. If you find that your plant or pot has arrived in a less than satisfactory condition, please reach out to us at hello@plantsforallseasons.co.uk within a month of your delivery date. When contacting us, please provide your order reference, alongside a photo clearly showing the damaged item and its packaging, including the delivery label. We are committed to resolving such issues by offering a refund or a replacement, depending on the availability of the item in question.
We are unable to accept returns that are not related to damage because plants are inherently perishable and delicate. It's also worth noting that the plant you receive may slightly differ from the images displayed on our website. This variation is natural, given that each plant is unique and subject to seasonal growth changes.

Toona sinensis ‘Flamingo’, often called the Chinese Cedar ‘Flamingo’, is a spectacular ornamental tree known for its stunning pink spring foliage, which brings vibrant colour and soft texture to the garden at a time when many trees are still waking up. A cultivar of the Chinese Mahogany (Toona sinensis), ‘Flamingo’ is prized for its exceptional leaf colour and elegant form.
Foliage: Young leaves emerge a brilliant pink to salmon-pink in spring, gradually fading through cream to fresh green as the season progresses. The feathery, pinnate leaves give a soft, almost tropical appearance. In autumn, foliage may take on gentle yellow tones before falling.
Form: Typically grows into a small to medium-sized tree with a rounded crown. Generally reaches 6–8 metres high with a similar spread over many years, though can be kept smaller with pruning.
Bark: Smooth grey-brown on young trees, developing attractive fissures with age.
Other interest: Unlike many colourful trees which rely on flowers, ‘Flamingo’ offers spectacular interest purely from its foliage, making it a superb specimen tree.
Because of its striking spring display, Toona sinensis ‘Flamingo’ is especially effective as a focal point in lawns, borders or large mixed plantings, where its seasonal transformation can be fully appreciated.
Prefers a sunny or lightly dappled spot.
Best leaf colour is achieved in full sun, but young foliage benefits from a little shelter from strong midday sun which can cause scorch, especially in very hot summers.
Plant in a sheltered location, protected from cold, drying winds which can damage new leaves.
Once established, reasonably drought tolerant, but young trees will need watering in dry spells.
Ensure consistent moisture in the first couple of growing seasons to encourage strong root development.
Grows well in most fertile, well-drained soils, preferring slightly acidic to neutral ground.
Avoid heavy, waterlogged soils which can lead to root problems.
Generally needs little feeding if planted in good garden soil.
Mulch annually in spring with well-rotted compost to retain moisture and improve soil structure.
Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to remove any crossing or damaged branches and maintain a balanced shape.
Can be hard pruned to encourage vigorous regrowth of colourful foliage if grown primarily for its dramatic leaf display (sometimes treated like a large coppiced shrub).
Generally robust and relatively pest-free.
In very wet conditions or poorly drained soils, may be susceptible to root problems.
