I first saw this shrub many years ago at Exbury Gardens in Hampshire. Reaches eight feet at maturity and needs a moist, acid to neutral soil in sun or part shade (my first plant, planted in shade on heavy soil failed in a cold, wet winter)
Comments on this photo
Aleyna - behind the enkianthus is a conifer, picea glauca var albertiana 'Conica'. This grows in a prefect cone shape and can eventually reach twenty feet

Oh many thanks Andrew, it is a lovely conifer.
