Pieris Temple Bells 140mm

Pieris ‘Temple Bells’ is pure elegance in plant form. This stunning evergreen shrub produces cascading clusters of delicate, bell-shaped white flowers that resemble strands of tiny porcelain lanterns, creating a graceful display from late winter into spring. Before opening, the buds are flushed with soft pink tones, adding even more seasonal charm.

Set against glossy, deep green foliage, the flowers hang in abundance, bringing light and sophistication to shaded garden spaces. New growth often emerges with a bronze or reddish tint, adding year-round interest and contrast.

Perfect for part-shade positions, woodland gardens, feature pots, or as a refined border planting, ‘Temple Bells’ thrives in cool, protected areas with rich, well-drained soil. Its compact, tidy habit makes it an excellent choice for smaller gardens where structure and beauty matter.

Tip: Pieris prefers acidic soil. Improve your planting area with premium potting mix or compost designed for azaleas and camellias, and mulch well to keep roots cool and moist. Avoid harsh afternoon sun, especially in warmer climates, to prevent leaf scorch and keep foliage looking lush.
