Grown for its brilliant young leaf-colour and pretty little flowers, Pieris japonica Flaming Silver is a small, slow-growing, evergreen shrub with an upright habit. The leathery, deeply divided leaves emerge flaming scarlet, turning deep green edged with silvery white, lighting up a partially shaded border or woodland planting. In spring small, creamy-white urn-shaped flowers appear among the new leaves. Also good grown in a container, pieris Flaming Silver holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Must have acid soil or ericaceous compost.
