Plant of the month
Pieris ‘Flamingo’
This Pieris is large but rounded, a compact evergreen shrub for acidic soil.
In late winter and spring, this Pieris bears hanging clusters of urn-shaped, dark flamingo pink flowers that open to form dark-red beds. However, all year round the glossy green leaves are still attractive.
The ideal planting site for this Pieris is in shrub borders as specimens and in woodland gardens.
