Pieris x 'Forest Flame'

      Description

      This striking evergreen shrub showcases a compact, bushy habit with glossy, lance-shaped leaves that emerge in fiery red during spring, gradually maturing to creamy white and then green, creating year-round visual interest. Hardy to Zones 5-8, it thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers well-drained, acidic soils rich in organic matter for optimal growth. In spring, clusters of elegant, bell-shaped white flowers cascade from its branches, adding a subtle charm. The plant reaches a mature height of approximately 3 to 5 feet, with a similar spread, and displays good deer resistance. Its rounded form makes it an excellent choice for foundation plantings, borders, or woodland gardens, where its fiery spring flush contrasts beautifully with other greenery.
