Description: A compact, mounded shrub with large, dark green, highly disease-resistant foliage that changes to a dramatic, burgundy-red in cold weather. Clusters of pink buds open to pale pink flowers which fade to white, followed by small blue-black fruit. Evergreen. Its versatile qualities make this compact shrub and its dense evergreen foliage extremely popular in landscaping. New growth has red leaves that transform into dark green in summer, and are accented with creamy white, fragrant flowers that bloom in spring. This compacted, moderate-growing plant grows as tall as 4 feet. Best performs as a low hedge, accent, foundation, and border plant. This evergreen shrub needs a regular water schedule to ensure the growth of a mature root system. After the mature root system is established, watering is needed occasionally, except during a drought, watering is needed regularly. Pruning is not required. Shear annually after flowering to maintain desired shape. The leaves of this shrub are two to four inches long, and alternate on the stem with slightly toothed leaf margins. They are slightly rounded in shape, leathery in texture, and have a dark green color. The foliage will be clustered at the ends of the many branched stems, which give this plant a very full appearance. In the fall and winter, expect some leaf drop of the older leaves - they turn crimson red color before falling off the plant. Indian hawthorns are grown for their attractively neat, mounded form and clusters of flowers. The fragrant, pink or white crabapple-like flowers open in clusters above the foliage in mid-April to May. Bluish-black berries appear in late summer and persist through the winter. The leathery, dark evergreen leaves are rounded, about 2 to 3 inches long, turning purplish in winter.
