Japonica Pieris Plant, Pieris Wakehurst

Pieris Wakehurst is a decorative, evergreen shrub. This compact, rounded shrub carries chains of pink flower buds that open into white flowers during spring. The new foliage is fiery red but matures to become leathery, glossy, and dark green as it grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide. Pieris Wakehurst makes for a superb specimen in a small garden and is well suited to growing in a container, adding to mixed plantings, formal gardens, or for border planting.

Pieris Wakehurst Details

Pieris Wakehurst is a decorative, evergreen shrub. This compact, rounded shrub carries chains of pink flower buds that open into white flowers. They are borne through spring as pendent like clusters on graceful stems and are mildly fragrant. The new foliage is fiery red but matures to become leathery, glossy, and dark green. It typically grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide, performing best when planted on a well-drained site in full sun or partial shade. Leaf colouring and flowering will be reduced as the levels of shade are increased and it is frost hardy once established. Pieris Wakehurst makes for a superb specimen in a small garden and is well suited to growing in a container, adding to mixed plantings, formal gardens, or for border planting.
