Leucothoe axillaris 'Twisting Red' ℗
Leucothoe 'Twisting Red' ℗ is a striking evergreen shrub with beautifully twisted, glossy foliage that brings colour and texture to the garden all year round. The new growth emerges a deep red, maturing to rich green before transforming into vibrant bronze and red tones through autumn and winter. In spring, clusters of small, bell-shaped white flowers appear, adding delicate contrast to the vivid foliage.
Compact and easy to grow, ‘Twisting Red’ thrives in moist, acidic, well-drained soil and partial shade. Perfect for borders, containers, and woodland gardens, it provides outstanding seasonal colour and year-round structure in both modern and traditional planting schemes.
