Pieris Japonica Flaming Silver is a high impact shrub for almost any garden. Young foliage emerging bright red before maturing to dark green with contrastingly edged silver-white leaves gives this hardy shrub its name. The creamy white, bell-shaped flowers that hang down in clusters from spring help to add a touch of contrast to the outstanding foliage. Pieris Flaming Silver is ideal for growing in beds and borders, and can even be planted in large containers of ericaceous compost.
