Description

Island Manzanita is an evergreen shrub to 5', needing sun and good drainage. This one has glossy dark-green, rounded leaves like a mirror plant with red bark. This one seems to be hardy to about -5 degrees F. This species is a very stunning plant in the landscape. There is a form in the trade named 'Canyon Sparkles'. The form we grow is excellent (we think as good). It has been easy here and surprisingly drought and cold tolerant. This species does very well in the heavier soils.
