The Minuet Mountain Laurel is an outstanding dwarf evergreen, smothered in beautiful blooms in early summer. The unique cup-shape flowers are white with a broad red band inside, and red markings at their heart. They are carried in clusters at the ends of the branches, and the buds are almost as attractive as the blooms, so this plant is interesting for many weeks. The rich evergreen foliage is handsome all year round, and this compact shrub to 3 feet by 3 feet is a year-round garden asset.

  • Gorgeous clusters of flowers in white and red
  • Profuse blooming in early summer
  • Compact dwarf shrub with attractive evergreen foliage
  • Grows in acidic soil, or in planters
  • Grows well in partial or full shade

The Minuet Mountain Laurel will grow in a wide range of light conditions, from full sun to partial shade and in light full shade too. It grows best in acidic soils, which should be well-drained, rich and moist. If you don’t have suitable soil, grow it in a container with soil blended for acid-loving plants, and it will thrive for years. It needs no pruning, just the removal of spent flower clusters, and it always remains compact and attractive. Pests or diseases are normally not a problem.
