Kalmia latifolia Utopia



Like Minuet, Utopia has a more upright form and smaller leaves than most latifolia varieties. A slow grower, it blooms in May and June, producing extraordinary clusters of white flowers with rings of red splotches around the edges.

Use

As an isolated lawn specimen or in association with evergreen shrubs such as Rhododendrons, Japanese Azaleas, Camellias, etc.

Planting

Kalmias need moist but well-drained acidic soil. They won’t grow well in clayey soil. Remove the plant from its container and thoroughly soak the root ball. Place the plant (not too deeply) in a hole with a mixture of loose soil and topsoil around the root-ball, gently tamping the earth. Water in.

Maintenance

Water well the first year. Avoid applying excessive amounts of fertiliser.
