Kalmia latifolia 'Show Time'

 

Show Time Mountain Laurel is a beautiful evergreen shrub prized for its oversized clusters of vibrant pink flowers that emerge from rich red buds in late spring. An improved selection of our native Mountain Laurel, this variety combines spectacular spring blooms with glossy evergreen foliage that adds year-round beauty to the landscape.

 

Growing to approximately 6 feet tall and wide, Show Time Mountain Laurel develops a naturally dense, rounded habit that requires very little pruning. It's an excellent choice for woodland gardens, foundation plantings, mixed shrub borders, and partially shaded landscapes where its colorful blooms can brighten areas that receive limited sunlight.

 

Like other Mountain Laurels, Show Time thrives in acidic, well-drained soil and appreciates consistent moisture while becoming established. Its flowers attract butterflies and hummingbirds, while its evergreen foliage provides lasting texture throughout every season. Gardeners also appreciate its deer-resistant nature, making it a dependable choice in many landscapes.

 

At Lots of Plants, we specialize in healthy, well-established shrubs that create immediate impact in the garden. Whether you're adding a single specimen or designing a woodland planting, Show Time Mountain Laurel offers outstanding color, year-round interest, and dependable performance for years to come.

Be sure to use a well drained soil medium when planting any Mountain Laurel as they prefer fall planting with less watering than you might think. In NC our soil is clay so we prefer to use pine bark soil conditioner when planting Camellia, Rhododendron, Mountain Laurel, and Azalea.
