A stunning small and compact rounded shrub that's absolutely smothered with pretty pink flower buds in winter and on through spring. As the springtime weather warms, these open to a dazzling display of sparkling star-shaped white flowers. A fantastic sight that needs to be seen to be believed.
Feature:
Bright pink buds lead to starry white flowers as spring warms.
Uses:
Best in a patio tub or borders where its springtime brilliance can be enjoyed.
Position:
Full sun, a warm open position and freely-drained soils. It'll handle warmer parts of Zone 9 with little trouble.
Care:
Clip to shape after flowering. Prefers poor and slightly acidic soils; go easy on fertiliser and don't use lime. A yellow foliage hue indicates trace element deficiency - consult your garden centre.
