| COTONEASTER horizontalis |
Rockspray Cotoneaster |
||
| Height: 2-3' | Zone: 4-6 |
 |
|
| Rock Cotoneaster has a low, spreading habit, and the fishbone branching pattern adds interest. The fall foliage of its shiny leaves ranges from reddish-orange to burgundy; the light pink blooms of late spring yield to equally shiny red berries. The branching of rock cotoneaster is stiff and dense, giving the plant, overall, a rather bristly look. Stems shoot off the branches in what's often referred to as a "herringbone pattern." | |||
