Description
We are indebted to Scarlett, aka Susie, Marglin for sharing with us this sport that occurred in her garden in Medina, WA. We have long been attracted to this finely textured evergreen shrublet with small, rounded, glossy evergreen leaves along stems rising to 2 ft. This sport brandishes foliage sprightly variegated in creamy white infused with pinkish tones, adding folial interest to the shrub year-round. Small, rather insignificant flowers. Marginally hardy in the PNW, this is best used as a superlative ingredient in a tasteful container or in climates that can accommodate it.
