A Pacific Northwest forest shrub, Salal's landscape potential is often overlooked. Shiny, long-lasting leaves, showy flowers and edible fruit. Low-maintenance landscape border. Prune low every 3-5 years.
Very compact, to only 4 ft. tall; an abundantly flowering selection from the US National Arboretum - Dr. Sandy Reed in TN. Flowers held erect, emerging white and aging to an appealing light pink. Extraordinary plant!
This is the smallest form that we offer, but it's not a dwarf. It has smaller flowers and redder fall color than the others. Some tip damage below -30°F.
Another USNA introduction - a cross of 'Snow Queen’ and ‘Pee Wee’. The upright, 9 in. inflorescences come out white but very quickly develop a pleasant rosy hue. To only about 3.5 ft. tall, it fits neatly into today's compact multi-family housing landscapes.
