Good call on both, thank you. I gave a very large pieris in the back garden so I might steer clear of that, but thanks for the suggestion

I second a pieris.
I have an Euonymus japonica bravo on my doorstep (very windy at times) and I can virtually ignore it, although in full sun you'll need to water quite often.

What about a Pieris. I think they must be related to a tortoise 🤣

I have quite a large pot that I've acquired and it is sitting next to my front door. It will be in full sun for most of the day but it can be windy, so I'm thinking an Acer would curl up and die. Full disclosure: I don't want to have to repot it often/at all as I'm a lazy gardener. Does anyone know of a slow growing plant that would fit the bill?
Full full disclosure: I live in central Scotland. It can be cold but is often wet.
