Evergreen shrub. Deep green leaves of only about one inch and dark mahogany stems. The late winter flowers are white aging to shell pink. Very happy with summer drought, but also, unlike many manzanitas, willing to tolerate some summer garden water – but only some so best not to overdo it. Low water needs once established.
