An elegant, evergreen shrub prized for its cascading clusters of bell-shaped flowers in early spring. Pieris japonica offers year-round interest with glossy green foliage that often emerges red or bronze before maturing. Typically growing 8–10 feet tall, it thrives in partial shade and acidic, well-drained soil—perfect for woodland gardens, borders, or foundation plantings. Low-maintenance and deer-resistant, it brings reliable color and texture to any landscape.
