DESCRIPTION
Cotoneaster dammeri is a low-growing evergreen shrub with trailing stems that root as they spread, forming a dense mat of glossy, dark green leaves. In late spring, small white flowers appear along the stems, each with soft pink tinges and prominent stamens that add fine detail to the foliage.

Blooming in late spring, this species originates from mountainous regions of China. It is widely used as a groundcover on slopes, banks, and retaining walls, where its spreading habit helps knit plantings together. Bright red berries develop after flowering and often persist into winter, providing long-lasting seasonal color and visual interest.
