Product Details
An exciting cross between Kalmiopsis and Phyllodoce which was made in 1975 by Barry Starling. This was considered the best of the resultant seedlings and named. Essentially looking like a Phyllodoce - spreading to around 16 inches in 5 or 6 years although it will be only around half this in height. The leaves are deep glossy rich green and rather needle-like, up to 1 inch long. Flowers are held on 1 inch pedicels and are lavender-pink in colour, around half an inch wide and saucer shaped.
