Key Characteristics
Description / Leucothoe axillaris Leafscape™ 'Little Flames'
Just about 20 inches high and a foot wide, this naturally bushy, well-branched little shrub looks as though you carefully pruned and shaped it, but in truth it needs no shearing at all to maintain its natural symmetry. The heather-like white blooms in late spring last for several weeks, perfuming the surroundings, but it's really the foliage that it Little Flames's big draw. Simply irresistible!
Site this shrub in full sun only in cooler climates, offering dappled sunlight or partial shade everywhere else. Give it well-drained soil and keep it watered. Then sit back, get the camera ready, and admire!
