Southern Moon® Yedda Hawthorn

Rhaphiolepis umbellata

An exceptional, improved selection! Nearly a decade of evaluation has shown this plant to exhibit strong disease resistance combined with a compact, mounding habit. In spring, a profusion of white flowers covers the shrub just prior to the new flush of foliage. Leaves are glossy, deep green with wavy margins. Excellent for foundation plantings. -Provided by Monrovia
