Quick Overview:

Pieris japonica ‘Compacta’ is a broadleaf evergreen shrub that typically matures to 8? tall with a dense, upright habit. It features drooping clusters (racemes to 6? long) of lily-of-the-valley-like white flowers in early spring. Serrulate, oblanceolate to obovate-oblong leaves (to 3.5? long) emerge orange-bronze but mature to glossy dark green. Leaves are evergreen. Bead-like flower buds are set in late summer for the following year and provide winter interest and contrast to the evergreen foliage.
