Like its close relative 'Passion', 'Passion Frost' demands to be seen in the landscape and is very pesuasive in getting your attention. It lures you in with its deep pink mid to late April bloom featuring strings of small, bell shaped flowers that are a blast of color in an otherwise white Pieris blooming world. While 'Passion Frost' can't boast as deep pink flowers as 'Passion', it does have something that its showier blooming cousin can only envy: sparkling, showy, strongly variegated foliage that keeps its color even in the heat of summer. Each 'Passion Frost' leaf is happy to show off a distinct, bright white, thin band around the outer edge that surrounds a deep green glossy center. It is an amazing, year round show for this evergreen that makes its striking bloom look even more outstanding. 'Passion Frost' craves a morning sun/afternoon shade location with moist, well drained soil and winter wind protection to thrive.
