Leucothoe Margie Jenkins
Leucothoe Margie Jenkins is a dwarf evergreen shrub with a lax, arching, multi-stemmed habit. The rich, thick dark green foliage of Leucothoe Margie Jenkins emerges with red-tinged new growth and stays green throughout the winter. In spring, profuse axillary clusters of fragrant white flowers bloom, adding seasonal interest. Thriving in partial sun with rich, moist, acidic, well-drained soils, Leucothoe Margie Jenkins is low-maintenance and resistant to black leaf. Note: the leaves are highly toxic if ingested.
