Please Note: Plug orders being shipped have a minimum order requirement of 8 plugs. As the Trees & Shrubs will be coming from Wright Nurseries in central Alberta and the Wildflowers, Grasses & Vines from Wild About Flowers by Okotoks, AB, both categories have a minimum order of 8 plugs for plug orders being shipped.

Description: Low-branching shrub with a compact form with fine, reddish-brown branches that turn grey and shed as it ages. Leaves are profuse and blueish green with wavy margins. Petite, pinkish white flowers bloom in summer and give way to pillowy white berries that persist through the winter. Works well as a small hedge, understory plant or in small plantings.

Notes: Form will be the thickest and prettiest in full sun, but will still be attractive in the shade, just with a thinner shape.

Important Information: The "Bloom Period" is an indicator of the time period within which the wildflowers will bloom and does not describe the time period that a single plant will bloom. The "Sizes" listed are intended to be a general guideline to consult during plant selection. Plant growth and bloom times will vary depending on geographical location & individual site conditions.
