Japanese Andromeda Shrub

Japanese Andromeda (Pieris japonica), also called Japonica, are prized for their ability to grow in shady areas. They also are known for their vibrant new foliage and bell-shaped flowers. These shrubs rarely need pruning, but the best time for pruning is after their spring flowers are finished. Japonica thrive in partial shade, where they can hide from the afternoon sun. They prefer moist, nutrient rich, and slightly acidic soil. Plant them as an accent in a large garden area. Japonica are toxic to humans and pets, so be sure to plant them in a safe spot.
