Monica Manzanita

Monica Manzanita

A fantastic and easy manzanita that has stood the test of time! Monica Manzanita is a big one, growing to about 10′ tall and nearly as wide at a quick pace. Very tolerant of garden conditions as far as the giant cultivars go and amazing if pruned to a small tree showing off the muscular trunks. Late winter clusters of pink flowers turn into profusions of russet berries that the birds adore!
