Pieris Mountain Fire (Pieris japonica Mountain Fire ), also know as Japanese Andromeda Mountain Fire, is a partial-shade garden show-stopper! Pieris Mountain Fire offers so many interesting features, you ll wonder why you waited this long to plant a few!
An amazingly ornamental evergreen, Mountain Fire will add some gorgeous color to your landscape year-round! From the start of the year, the foliage has flaming red, early spring hues, and in summer as it ages it turns burgundy then to a deep green for the main portion growing season. In winter it is thoroughly evergreen and stays that way until spring s red leaves arrive.
The spring foliage is always mixed with the previous year s leaves of pure green, so it looks almost like red flowers blooming on the bush. It doesn t take long, though, for the red leaves to give way to fragrant clusters of pinkish-white flowers that form in unusual hanging chains and dangle from the plant.
