Pieris japonica 'Little Heath Green'



1st April 2023


A comfortable, almost smug looking evergreen, with small leaves on mcompact growth. The new growth is pleasantly bronze rather than brightly coloured. I have grown it for a long time in a pot but it was only a couple of years ago that I found a suitable space for it in the garden.
A green leaved sport from 'Little Heath', both cultivars were selected and named by Peter Foley at Little Heath Nursery near Berhamstead.
