Longer lasting pink flowers make this compact 2' x 2' evergreen a real treasure in spring; perhaps faster growing, also, though they' re never speedy!; a handsome evergreen for foundation or shady border. Shade-PSh/Med(Notdry)

This 2 x 2' miniature plant is reputed to be somewhat faster growing than 'Tiddlywinks' and a deeper pink color. One can't have too many small Kalmias!!
