Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Gorgeous evergreen with dark green, leathery leaves, to 4" long with bronze fuzz on pale green undersides. Fragrant pink flowers appear in late spring to early summer. A bigeneric cross between R. umbellata and Eriobotrya japonica, hence the large leaves. Can reach 15', but more often remains an 8-10' tall and wide shrub or small tree. Sun to part shade with summer water; tolerates some drought once established. Frost hardy in USDA zone 8.
