Mountain Fire Japanese Andromeda is a dramatic and popular cultivar named for its spectacular spring foliage. The new leaves emerge a brilliant, intense scarlet-red, creating a "mountain fire" effect that lasts for several weeks before maturing to a deep, glossy green. In early spring, it produces profuse chains of white or pink-tinged flowers. Its bold color and elegant, layered habit make it a superb focal point for shaded areas.

• Fiery Red New Growth: The standout feature—new spring foliage is a vibrant, long-lasting scarlet-red.

• Profuse Early Spring Blooms: Bears abundant, dangling clusters of white flowers, often tinged with pink.

• Attractive Layered Habit: Develops a graceful, upright form with tiered branching.

• Requires Acidic Soil & Shade: Essential needs are acidic, organic, well-drained soil and partial to full shade.

• Excellent Specimen Shrub: Its seasonal drama makes it perfect as a standalone accent in a woodland setting or shaded border.
