Description
Pieris Mount Fire is a stunning evergreen shrub that delivers a bold display of color and texture throughout the seasons. Its standout feature is its vibrant red new growth, which emerges in fiery tones before maturing into a rich, glossy green. In early spring, clusters of delicate, creamy white, bell-shaped flowers cascade over the foliage, creating a striking contrast against the deep green leaves. With its compact, mounded habit and year-round appeal, this shrub is an excellent choice for foundation plantings, shaded borders, and woodland landscapes. Its consistent structure and seasonal interest make it one of the finest selections for adding elegance and color variation to the landscape.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Prefers part shade to full shade
  • Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish strong roots and encourage vigorous new growth; once established, requires little supplemental watering except in prolonged dry periods
  • Mulching: Apply a 2-inch layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
  • Pruning: Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and remove spent blooms
  • Winter Protection: Provide wind protection in exposed locations to prevent winter burn

With its fiery new foliage, fragrant spring blooms, and refined evergreen structure, Pieris Mount Fire is a polished and refreshing addition to shaded landscapes, bringing year-round interest and elegance to any setting.
