A Native Sons Nursery selection from Tranquillon Ridge in Santa Barbara County. Found growing under a canopy of Bishop pines, the mature shrub was 10 ft. tall by 10 ft. wide. Dark rosy pink flower buds open to a nice medium pink on long racemes in the early spring. Best with some shade even in coastal gardens where it’s drought tolerant. Occasional deep waterings are best in hot inland areas. Berries attract many birds including grosbeak and mockingbirds.
