Description
Leucothoe keiskei A very rarely grown member of this ornamental genus. This has incredibly glossy, evergreen, heart-shaped foliage with long tapering tips. Bronze-red, shiny new foliage. The branching habit is pendulous, making it a perfect choice for a tall container or atop a rock wall. The white urn-shaped flowers are among the largest in the genus, especially in comparison with the smaller stature and foliage of this dwarf species. Native to Japan and a much nicer garden plant than its commonly grown relatives when space is limited. Best with some shade. (-15) RSBG
