Kalmia polifolia
Kalmia polifolia is a dwarf, evergreen shrub with a low, spreading habit that is perfect for the front of acid borders or path edges, pairing beautifully with rhododendrons and azaleas. Its slender, glossy, deep green leaves provide year-round interest, while mid-to-late spring brings a dazzling display of purple-pink, saucer-shaped blooms in eye-catching terminal clusters. This low-growing beauty adds vibrant colour, texture and all-year-round foliage to any garden with minimal upkeep. In gardens with alkaline soil it makes a charming specimen for a container filled with ericaceous compost, bringing strong spring impact with its dense blanket of dainty flowers that smother the foliage. Height: 30-60cm (12-24in). Spread: 90cm (35in).Please note – all parts are toxic if eaten. Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
