Low Scape Snowfire®

Low Scape Snowfire® is a compact, low-growing shrub celebrated for its striking seasonal interest and landscape versatility. In spring, it produces clusters of white flowers that attract pollinators, followed by glossy green foliage and dark berries in summer. As temperatures cool, the leaves transform to vibrant shades of red and orange in fall, creating dramatic autumn color. Typically reaching 4-6 feet tall and 3-4 feet wide, its dense, mounded habit makes it ideal for borders, mass plantings, slopes, and low-maintenance landscapes. Adaptable to a range of soil conditions, tolerant of both wet and dry spots once established, and easy to maintain, Low Scape Snowfire adds year-round appeal to garden beds and mixed shrub borders. Some may choose Snowfire over Low Scape Mound® if they are not overly concerned with having a tight, uniform look and having a striking fall display is their priority.
