Hi there. I saw this newly planted shrub in a garden and it caught my eye. The tag was still on it, so I know what it is! But I didn't turn up anything in a search on the forums.

I'm wondering if this would work for me in front of my 6' tall kalmia.

We're slowly bringing the kalmia back from years and years of neglect by previous non-gardening owners of the house. We pruned hard after flowering 2 years in a row and have some new growth filling in, but I don't have much control over the shape yet. It's got a big empty space in the middle and I'm thinking I might as well go with that and fill in with a smaller, lower buddy shrub.

Zone 6b. Partial sun, sheltered in an inside corner where my entry room meets the front wall of the house. Does anybody have any experience with coast leucothe? Izzit fussy? How tall might it get? How wide?

Thanks.

suky
