Rocky Knoll Farm
Pieris japonica 'Mountain Fire'
$29
Aptly named for its fiery red new foliage, this striking evergreen shrub puts on a an incredible show in any garden or landscape. We love this attractive plant as it is easy to grow and very versatile. The blend of colors and texture across the foliage and swooping white blooms make Mountain Fire an excellent choice for any landscape or garden with well-draining soil. It is a winner of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society.
It can grow to over 5' tall and 4' wide, and is uniquely shade resistant. Hardy to -20°F when protected from windchill. It requires well-draining acidic soil, like what you get in our Starter Soil Kit.
