Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Eastwood's manzanita is one of the most variable and difficult manzanitas to define, and this one is so weird that I am not even sure it is A. glandulosa. It may be a hybrid. Its unique features are bristly hairs covering the plant, suggesting genetic input from A. columbiana; and it is remarkably sticky. It's still a nice looking plant though, with pale green leaves, and ought to be very cold hardy as it comes from about 3,800' southeast of Grants Pass, Oregon. It ought to reach at least 5 - 6' tall, we think.
