Leucothoe fontanesiana

Tough plant to survive such a low temperature.

I like this little shrub Shirley_tulip. It is evergreen, likes semi-shade or shade and growing well for me even if neglected.
Now I also know that it is hardy.

Snap Klahanie we have the same one..so hardy and as you say lives on neglect...I hope!!

Julia ,I bought it because I first noticed it in your garden. Many, many, years ago.

Oh great!...
