Plant something a little bit different Leucothe scarletta

Leucothe Scarletta is lovely low growing evergreen shrub,          

                                                         
It has long, slim glossy leaves that in spring are dark maroon, turning greener as they mature and then taking on lovely bronze  tint in the autumn. Although it prefers partial shade, the leaves  forms an attractive dome of dense foliage and if kept low, makes ideal groundcover, it prefers  ericaceous soil but will grow well in a pot as well.Flowers  in spring
