Buy Forest Flame Pieris online. Forest Flame Pieris is an elegant shade shrub that produces glossy, evergreen, green leaves on woody branching. Throughout the seasons, new growth is produced as dark coral pinks, maturing to a golden yellow, then moving to dark green. In spring, it will light up the landscape with clusters of bell-shaped white flowers. Planting in a protected area from wind will help this shade-loving specimen to not get brown leaves from desiccation.
Family: Ericaceae · Common Name: Pieris
