Leucothoe fontanesiana ‘Rainbow’ – Rainbow Drooping Leucothoe
Price range: $77.00 through $97.00
Rainbow Drooping Leucothoe is a colorful native evergreen shrub with a lax, arching multi-stemmed habit. Its variegated foliage emerges molted with pinks, bronze, and creams and matures to deep green specked with creamy white before turning shades of burgundy, bronze, and red in fall. Drooping clusters of fragrant white flowers are borne in profuse axillary clusters in mid-spring. Grows best with partial sun in rich and moist, well-drained acidic soils. Leaves are highly toxic if ingested.
