This dwarf hybrid coralberry cultivar is a low-growing, spreading, deciduous shrub which typically grows 1-1.5' tall. Its arching stems do not root where they touch the ground. The bell-shaped, pink flowers appear in summer along the stems in clusters and in spikes at the stem ends.
The fFlowers give way to clusters of pink/coral berries which mature in autumn. Berries persist into winter providing excellent color and interest. This plant displays dark green leaves (to 3/4" long). The berry-laden winter stems may be cut for indoor floral arrangements.
