Scarletta Leucothoe is a compact native evergreen shrub with a lax, arching multi-stemmed habit. Its shiny deep green leaves emerge a striking scarlet-purple and turns red bronze in fall.  Drooping clusters of fragrant white flowers are borne in profuse axillary clusters in mid-spring.  Grows best with partial sun in rich and moist, well-drained acidic soils.  Leaves are highly toxic if ingested.
