Leprechaun Florida Leucothoe is a small multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with an upright-spreading habit. Its rich, glossy-green foliage emerges tinged with copper and remains green through the winter. Short axillary clusters of fragrant urn-shaped white flowers bloom from mid-spring into early summer. Grows best in partial sun and rich, moist acidic well-drained soils. Leaves are highly toxic if ingested.
