Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Is pure white flowering Mt. Laurel. Said to be very heat tolerant than most Kalmias. The deep green foliage makes a great backdrop for the white flowers.

Pure white flowers set off nicely by excellent dark green foliage. Discovered in South Carolina, so it's well adapted to heat and humidity. Compact habit.
