Description

This manzanita is a dense, mounding shrub with shiny red bark that looks great with the bright green foliage. The new growth is an attractive reddish color and the blossoms are white, appearing in winter to early spring. This shrub tends to grow in a round form without pruning and has very dense foliage. It is slow growing and reaches about 5 feet in height and width. It is thought to be a natural hybrid of Arctostaphylos edmundsii.
