  • Description

  • Notes

Willowleaf Cotoneaster is a semi-evergreen shrub with slender dark green leaves and bright red fruits. Spring flowers are white, though not particularly showy. It grows about 24 inches tall and eventually 8 to 10 feet wide. Particularly effective when used atop walls or on slopes to take full advantage of its arching, graceful habit.
