Pieris Japonica Flaming Silver 20 Litre Pot 100/125cm Tall

Pieris japonica ‘Flaming Silver’ – Year-Round Elegance with a Fiery Spring Display

Pieris japonica ‘Flaming Silver’ is a beautifully compact evergreen shrub that delivers colour and interest in every season. In spring, its new growth bursts forth in shades of vivid crimson, creating a striking contrast against the mature leaves edged with a neat silver-white margin. As the season progresses, these fresh shoots mature to glossy green with their delicate variegation, providing a sophisticated backdrop to other plants in the garden.

In early spring, graceful clusters of small, white, bell-shaped flowers cascade from the branches, adding a soft, romantic feel to its bold foliage. These blooms are a valuable source of early nectar for pollinators, making ‘Flaming Silver’ not only beautiful but wildlife-friendly too.

This slow-growing shrub is perfect for smaller gardens, containers, or mixed borders, thriving in acid to neutral soils and preferring partial shade, where its variegation really stands out. It requires minimal maintenance and is naturally tidy in form, making it a superb choice for adding year-round structure and colour without fuss.
