Pieris Little Heath, a slow growing shrub with creamy variegated leaves which are tipped red on new growth. Ultimate height reaching 60cm.

The Pieris Little Heath is a charming evergreen shrub admired for its attractive foliage and seasonal interest. This compact variety features variegated leaves with creamy-white edges and dark green centres, providing year-round visual appeal. In spring, new growth emerges with a pinkish tint, and clusters of small, white, bell-shaped flowers appear, adding further beauty to this versatile plant. Its neat, bushy habit makes it an ideal choice for garden beds, borders, rockeries, or containers.

Where to Position Your Pieris Little Heath

Pieris Little Heath thrives best in partial shade, though it can tolerate full sun if the soil is kept moist. It should be planted in well-drained, acidic soil that is rich in organic matter. This shrub is well-suited for use in woodland gardens or as a low-maintenance specimen plant. Regular watering is essential, particularly in dry conditions, to keep the foliage vibrant and healthy.

Growth and Maintenance

Known for its ornamental foliage and lovely spring flowers, Pieris Little Heath requires minimal maintenance. Pruning is best done after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage dense growth. Remove any dead or damaged branches to keep the plant looking its best. Regular mulching helps retain moisture and enrich the soil, promoting healthy growth.
