| Botanical Name | Rhaphiolepis indica ‘Bay Breeze’ PP19747 |
| Description | ‘Bay Breeze’® is highly regarded for its improved resistance to Entomosporium leaf spot compared to older varieties. It maintains a dense, mounded habit with glossy foliage that takes on a bronzy-purple tint in winter. While it thrives in Houston’s heat, it requires well-draining soil to prevent root issues. In areas with heavy clay, we strongly recommend planting in a raised bed or amended mound to ensure the drainage necessary to survive our heavy rainy seasons. |
| Exposure | Full Sun to Partial Shade (Full sun ensures best blooming and foliage density) |
| Height x Width | 2-3 feet tall x 3-4 feet wide |
| Water | Moderate; relatively drought-tolerant once established, but requires regular watering during dry spells to prevent stress. |
| Zones | 7 - 10 |
| Fertilization | Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to support new growth and blooms. |
| Pruning | Naturally maintains a tidy shape; lightly prune if needed immediately after the spring flowering cycle. |
| Deer Resistance | Low |
