Girard's Rainbow Leucothoe is a broad-leaved semi-evergreen with spring blooms and attractive foliage. Leaves are beautifully variegated with green, cream, and hints of pink creating a rainbow of color. The painted leaves are glossy and remain showy throughout the season. Fragrant, bell-shaped white blooms are held on long racemes in spring and attract butterflies. This small, 3-4' tall and wide shrub is an easy, but elegant option for part to full shade locations. Hardy to Zone 5.
