Kalmia latifolia
With their exeptional flowering kalmia without any doubt is a highlight in every garden. Still they are not very common or well known, which is a real pity. The flowering shape and colors are exeptional and deserve some more attention.
Due to the immense amount of flowering they have a good effect from afar as well. But they really shine when you get closer. Their filigree flowering is already as a bud a total eyecatcher und the shape of the flowering is really unusual.
This species also offers a lot of variation in growth, leaves and flowering. Kalmis is slow growing and usually doesn´t get bigger than 1,5 m. This makes them perfect for front yards or small gardens.
