Arctostaphylos manzanita 'St. Helena' - Manzanita

Description

This selection was made by Nevin Smith from Mount St. Helena in Napa County. This species grows into a gorgeous small tree, the greyish leaves contrasting beautifully with the cinnamon-red bark. Dangling clusters of white bell-shaped flowers appear in late winter. This selection has been very disease resistant. Very little pruning is necessary on our larger specimens as we have done the work for you. However, any pruning that is done should be performed in the summer.
