Moderately slow-growing evergreen shrub with an upright growth-habit, typically to 8-10’ tall x 5-8’ wide, or greater with age. Can easily be pruned to maintain a smaller size, or formed into a small, single-trunk patio tree. This long-time landscape favorite is a mid to late-season bloomer featuring lustrous, glossy, deep-green foliage accented with showy, formal double, pale-pink flowers appearing from mid-winter into early-spring. Well-suited as an accent or foundation planting and can be grown on trellises or in containers. A popular choice for woodland or Asian themed gardens. Prefers a rich, acidic, well-drained soil, and thrives with regular watering in a filtered-sun to light-shade exposure.
USDA Zone: 7-9
