A very versatile compact, low growing and naturally mounding shrub. It makes a great choice for low, formal hedges, foundation plantings or as a tall ground cover. This evergreen has small, dark green leaves that have a reddish cast when they are young. Clusters of small white flowers appear on the plant each spring but they tend to not be very showy.
Partial Shade, Partial Sun

Leaves lack sharp points, making it ideal for decks, patios, or entryways as a vertical accent or privacy screening. Makes an elegant, formal statement in large containers. Evergreen.
