Paul, I bought this to fill a gap where I had to dig up a very old Hebe. It was definitely past it's 'sell-by date'!

Klahanie, I can't imagine having to check plants for Deer resistance, but how nice the Deer find Pieris unpalatable!

I've a couple too, Shirley. They're really are quite a pretty shrub. They add some colour in the winter garden too.

Kate, I know they prefer ericaceous soil but I have had one planted for over ten years in our Sussex clay so shan't bother buying any!

That looks a nice big healthy plant. I hope it does well for you.

Thanks Josie, I'm now undecided on where to plant it as I have a choice of two places! Decisions, decisions!!

I love everything about Pieris and think you will love this one too.

Thanks Chris, I was going to plant it today but chickened out as it's turned really chilly.

Me too, Shirley. I have fairly neutral soil and they do fairly well here.

Kate, that's excellent to hear!
