Sarah Mountain Laurel

Vivid red buds open to bright pinkish-red flowers. 'Sarah' is the closest to pure red Mountain Laurel. Will make a fantastic focal point in your garden with its rich green, glossy leaves and vigorous, compact habit. Prefers more sun than other varieties. Named by Dick Jaynes as a tribute to his wife.
