Arctostaphylos 'Sunset'

Prepare for fiery beauty! 'Sunset' manzanita lives up to its name with coppery-red new growth that creates stunning color contrast against mature green leaves. The deep rose-pink flowers are absolutely show-stopping in late winter, covering the plant in color when gardens need it most. This vigorous spreader creates excellent groundcover with beautiful layered texture. The mahogany bark adds year-round interest. Incredibly drought tolerant and deer resistant - a true California treasure for water-wise landscapes!
