Leucothoe keiskei Burning Love
Leucothoe 'Burning Love' ('Opstal 50') PBR is a compact evergreen shrub with slender, elongated leaves carried on striking red stems. From autumn through spring, the foliage develops rich dark red and purple tones, bringing colour to the garden during the cooler months.
Its dense, bushy habit suits the front of mixed borders, woodland-style planting and patio containers. It also works well planted in groups or as a low hedge, combining with other shrubs that enjoy acidic soil.
Grow in sun or partial shade in moist but well-drained, acidic soil, using ericaceous compost in containers. Water regularly during dry spells and avoid allowing the rootball to dry out. Routine pruning is unnecessary; remove damaged shoots or lightly shape when needed.
