Very pretty. I had a dwarf one in a container by the garage for years - it died off last August.  :( I think I neglected to water it enough. I will probably get another one this spring. I saw a stunning variegated one at my favorite nursery but too much $$$$$$$$$.  >:(

That is an awesome photo of it...shows off how beautiful it really is. o(:-)
It's one of my favorite shrubs, plus it is deer proof...good quality here where I live.
I see you also have the variegated 'Flamingo' Pieris. 8)

I have P. 'Little Heath' too, such a petite beauty! O0
Peace to all  ... Joyce

I was so entranced by the red coloration of the new growth that I totally MISSED the variegated one! What a dope I am! It's lovely too.

That is so pretty, I love them, too.  I used to have four big ones at our last house, just the regular ones with white blooms.  A few years ago I planted a pink one here, but not the variegated variety.  Now I feel I cheated myself after seeing yours.   :-\
