DESCRIPTION
Pieris japonica 'Shy' is an evergreen shrub known for its vibrant spring growth and attractive, compact form. The new foliage emerges in a rich red color, which contrasts beautifully with the glossy, dark green leaves that persist through the winter. In late winter to early spring, the plant produces clusters of bright pink, bell-shaped flowers, which bloom from distinctive hot pink buds. This variety's ability to add color both in winter and spring makes it an appealing choice for various garden settings.
Native to East Asia, Pieris japonica is popular in ornamental gardening, with 'Shy' being a smaller, more compact cultivar. It is often used in foundation plantings or as a specimen shrub in shaded areas. Its appealing foliage and bright blooms bring seasonal interest to the landscape.
