Cotoneaster Coral Beauty (dammeri ‘Coral Beauty’) is a low-spreading evergreen shrub that makes an excellent groundcover. Cotoneaster Coral Beauty features dense branching covered in tiny shiny green leaves that develop a purple tinge as the weather cools. In late spring, Cotoneaster Coral Beauty produces small white flowers, followed by showy coral-red berries that add long-lasting color. This versatile groundcover prefers full sun and moist, well-drained soil. Cotoneaster Coral Beauty is a great choice for slopes, banks, or large landscape areas where a durable, attractive groundcover is desired.
