The Pieris Mountain Fire is a fabulous and unique evergreen shrub that adds bold color to your landscape with only minimal maintenance. Evergreen, shade, and drought-tolerant, and low maintenance, this hardy shrub is perfect for foundation and mass plantings, but even stands alone as a focal with its exciting red and green foliage and sprays of prolific white blooms. The natural shape of this dwarf Pieris Japonica is mounded.

The Mountain Fire Pieris is a slow grower that reaches about 4 feet tall and 3-4 feet wide over the first 10 years. It will continue to grow but rarely reaches over 8 feet tall and 6 feet wide at full maturity.

Key Features:

• This Pieris has vibrant foliage. New leaves emerge shiny red in early spring. They age to green in summer and then often turn a deep red again.
• This dwarf variety is great for small yards and gardens and even grows well in containers.
• Shade tolerant. The Mountain Fire tolerates shade and a good bit of it! This is definitely a hard-to-find feature, especially in a colorful flowering evergreen.
• A truly unique landscape shrub. The Pieris is so distinctive with its red foliage and cascading fragrant flower clusters your landscape will definitely stand out in the neighborhood.

Pro Tip: The Pieris Mountain Fire is the most cold-hardy broadleaf evergreen you will find with such exceptional color and flowering. It is recommended for US planting zones 5 to 8.
