Compact spreading habit, spectacular white bloom
Plant for acid soil, aerated, remaining wet in summer, and exposure not too sunny or hot.
Small evergreen shrub of heather earth, rounded, orange-red obovate leaves becoming shiny dark green. The flowering takes place from early spring, in the form of clusters of small bells, melliferous. 'Prelude' has a rounded spread habit wider than its height, its young shoots are coppery, and in spring it is covered with clusters of pure white bells.
