Pieris t. 'Snowdrift'

This evergreen shrub features a graceful weeping habit with cascading clusters of delicate white bell-shaped flowers that bloom in early spring. Hardy in zones 5-8, it thrives in cool to moderate temperatures and performs best in partial shade to dappled sunlight. Its foliage transforms to a striking bronze or red in fall before maturing to glossy green, offering year-round interest. Preferring acidic, well-drained soils, it adapts well to woodland gardens and shaded borders. With a mature height of 8-12 feet and a spread of 6-8 feet, it forms a dense, rounded shape, making it an excellent focal point. Known for its deer-resistant qualities, this shrub is a reliable choice for areas with browsing wildlife. No significant fruit is produced, but its elegant floral display and attractive foliage more than compensate.
