When the gardeners at Stoneleigh need a native, broadleaf evergreen, they often turn to Coastal Doghobble for its compact stature, luscious leaves, and spring flower display. 'Dodd’s Variegated' Coastal Doghbble is a shade tolerant shrub whose new growth emerges in shades of pink and tangerine alongside the delicate, urn-shaped flowers. As it matures, leaves become flecked with creamy white and green hues, and as winter arrives, the foliage darkens to shades of burgundy and purple, adding interest to the muted hues of the wintertime garden.
