About
This evergreen shrub with dark foliage and fragrant flower clusters is very effective as a landscape accent, mass planting, or combined with azalea and rhododendron. Leaves turn bronze with cold weather. Adapts to full sun or shade. Prefers acid (sour) to slightly alkaline (sweet) soil. Deer resistant.
