'Polar Passion' has a profusion of pretty dusky pink flowers emerging from early to mid spring. Mid green leaves with slender cream margins provide an elegant background for this visually appealing shrub.
Add composted pine needles or ericaceous compost when planting and apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch each year around the base of the plant in early spring. Remove the faded flower-heads in late spring along with any frost-damaged foliage.
