This elegant evergreen shrub features a refined, compact habit, perfect for espalier training against walls or fences. Thriving in USDA hardiness zones 6-9, it prefers cool, temperate climates with temperatures ranging from 10 to 85°F for optimal growth. The plant delights with its profusion of pristine, white, semi-double flowers in late fall to early winter, adding a touch of grace and charm to the garden. Its glossy, dark green foliage creates a striking backdrop for the blooms and provides year-round interest. While this variety does not offer significant fall color, its lush foliage compensates with its enduring beauty. It grows best in well-draining, acidic soils rich in organic matter, with consistent moisture to maintain vigor. Typically reaching 6-10 feet in height and 4-6 feet in width, this plant is ideal for creating focal points in formal gardens or enhancing narrow spaces. It has moderate deer resistance and requires protection from harsh winds and overly sunny exposures, especially in hotter climates. A truly enchanting choice for gardeners seeking refined elegance in their landscape.
