Compact, dense and delicious little Pieris with Dark green leaves, red new growth in spring and white bell-like lightly fragrances flowers in summer, though it can be shy of flowering. Slow growing to 4ft after 10 years or more.
Neutral to acid soil with lots of organic content. They always grow well where ferns grow. Light shade is best but they will grow in full sun and deep shade. Grown by cuttings.
N.B. When clipping several plants with the same tool, have a bucket containing a 5% bleach solution and swish your blades around for 30 seconds between plants to sterilise them. This will help avoid the chance of cross contamination of disease.
As with all woody plants, plant high, exposing as much of the taper at the base of the trunk as possible. Allowing soil to accumulate round the base of a tree can be fatal. Keep very well watered when first planted.
