  • Description

  • Notes

This slow growing Cotoneaster grows to about 3' tall and wide, with downward-curving branches and dark green foliage with the lighter undersides. Pink flowers appear in spring, followed by small red berries. This is a great ground cover around rocks and makes a good bonsai plant. This shrub does better in full sun for flower and fruit production. It is drought tolerant once it's established. Evergreen.
