The Cotoneaster ‘Cornubia’ is semi-evergreen, in that it holds on to a decent amount of its rich green leaves, which are oval in shape, throughout the winter. The tree does continue to lose leaves as the winter progresses, and by March will have lost most.
This useful garden tree is know to be great for pollinators such as bees and birds.
