Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Dainty, pendulous white bells cover each terminal branch on this evergreen shrub. Leaves, small also, are a glossy, dark green.

By: Bloom River Gardens

Another of Peter Cox's outstanding dwarf hybrids. Each terminal is crowned with beautiful miniature white clusters which appear in such profusion that it becomes a ball of snowy white. It makes a good looking dwarf plant, excellent for the rock garden or border. You may want to plant a grouping of this fine hybrid, it's so special!
