Leucothoe

September 2023

Leucothoe Little Flames is an evergreen shrub with glossy green leaves which then turn deep red in the Autumn months. This Leucothoe has a neat, bushy, compact growth habit making it ideal for the front of borders, containers or as a compact hedge. This plant would prefer partial shade as this will help, maintain its unusual foliage colour and it likes a damp soil so add plenty of compost at planting time and as a mulch in subsequent seasons.
