“Peaches and Cream” is a lovely shrub which is grown for its masses of pretty flowers. Single, peach coloured flowers coat the plant from late spring through summer. These sit neatly above the green, fern like foliage. It typically grows to 60 cm tall and the same wide, preferring a well-drained, sheltered site in full sun for best results. In cool climates plants may become deciduous during winter, but otherwise it will remain evergreen. “Peaches and Cream” is commonly included in a mixed planting, used in borders, maintained in a container, planted en masse for a stunning display, or grown around outdoor living areas.
