Pink Manzanita

This 8′ tall evergreen shrub will grow about as wide as tall.

The bark is lovely dark maroon and in the late winter through early spring urn shaped clusters of pink flowers that cover the plant. This particular species is very clay tolerant and can also handle surpentine soil. It needs very little maintenance to keep its beauty in the garden.

In the wild its distribution is limited to Sonoma County making it yet another endemic California species. This cultivar was selected for use in the garden by Saratoga Horticultural Foundation.
