Howard McMinn Manzanita

Arcostaphylos Densiflora 'Howard McMinn' Manzanita

Arctostaphylos Densiflora 'Howard McMinn' Manzanita grows into a delicate evergreen shrub that can reach heights of 7 feet. Its deep, glossy, dark-mahogany bark is smooth, and the leaves are a rich, glossy green. Late winter brings forth abundant clusters of pink urn-shaped flowers, which over the course of six weeks, become white. Summer brings about maroon berries. It makes for a great specimen or informal hedge.

Growing Howard McMinn Manzanita 

• Plant in well-draining soil and provide full sun to partial shade.
• Water sparingly, as Howard McMinn Manzanita is drought-tolerant once established.
• Prune lightly to maintain its natural shape and remove any dead or damaged growth.
• Avoid heavy fertilization, as this plant thrives in nutrient-poor soil.
• Protect from extreme temperatures and frost, particularly during the first few years after planting.
