Cold hardy to Zone 5
This low growing evergreen shrub grows alongside other perennials in a bed bordering the front porch in Lansing, New York. There are four plants, spaced among several hostas, bordered by rocks and covered with mulch. These plants are young and right now measure about 8" high and 8" wide but should grow to about 1 to 2 feet high and 3 to 4 feet wide. They should be fertilized each spring. Their small oval leaves retain their dark green colour throughout the year. The plant is known to be hardy, easy to grow and deer resistant.
