Notes
Boasting bright red flowers over winter, each with a golden crown of stamens, it’s not surprising, given its name, that 'Yuletide’ is at its best over the festive season. With glossy evergreen foliage, this specimen shrub is a low maintenance, ericaceous addition to border, container or woodland garden.
