Escallonia ‘Pinky Carpet’ (PBR) is a compact evergreen shrub grown for its low, spreading shape and generous summer flowering. Through the warmer months, clusters of soft pink blooms appear against glossy green leaves, bringing colour and contrast to borders. The plant naturally forms a neat mound that stays relatively low, making it well suited to the front of beds, edging, or container planting. In UK gardens it prefers a sheltered position with free-draining soil and flowers best in full sun, where it develops its fullest growth and longest display.
