A striking and refined Asian enkianthus that is unjustly rare in American gardens. The small, deciduous shrubs offer an elegant, tiered branch structure that adds a bit of natural sculpture to the garden. In May, pure white, pendant, urn-shaped flowers accentuate the fresh green leaves and horizontal branching pattern. Autumn brings long lived, shimmering scarlet-red fall color that is the rival of any hardy shrub. Plants are difficult to propagate and slow to establish yet perform admirably for years on end if given a rich, acidic soil with even moisture and good drainage. In the wilds of Japan the species is said to favor rocky slopes.
