However, the star of the show is the Leucothoe’s dangling bell-shaped flowers, usually crisp white in tone but occasionally tinged with blue. So, although the Rainbow Leucothoe’s 3 to 5-foot silhouette is smaller and more manageable in size, its colorful impact in flower beds, backyard gardens and beyond is huge.

Feed the evergreen plant with an acid fertilizer during the early spring, repeat after flowing and keep its roots cool with a thick, dense layer of mulch.
