Cavatine Japanese Andromeda
Pieris japonica ‘Cavatine’
Pieris japonica 'Cavatine' is a charming, dwarf evergreen shrub prized for its compact, mounding habit, attractive bronze-red new growth, and elegant chains of bell-shaped white flowers. This slow-growing selection is perfect for small gardens, woodland borders, and containers, offering year-round interest with its glossy, dark green foliage that emerges in striking shades of copper-red in spring. In early spring, it produces an abundance of pendulous, urn-shaped, creamy-white flowers that resemble lily-of-the-valley, creating a delicate, fragrant display that attracts bees and other early-season pollinators. Exceptionally shade-tolerant and low-maintenance, it is an outstanding choice for foundation plantings, shaded borders, and as an accent in woodland gardens.
