Cotoneaster dammeri Coral Beauty

Cotoneaster dammeri ‘Coral Beauty’ is a dense, low-growing evergreen shrub prized for its glossy dark green foliage and brilliant coral-red berries. In late spring, it produces small white flowers that give way to abundant, long-lasting fruit in fall and winter, creating vibrant seasonal interest. Its trailing, spreading habit makes it an excellent choice for groundcover, slopes, retaining walls, and cascading over borders.

Thriving in USDA Zones 5–8, ‘Coral Beauty’ prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is drought-tolerant once established and requires minimal maintenance, making it ideal for mass plantings and erosion control. With year-round texture and striking winter color, this versatile cotoneaster adds dependable beauty to residential and commercial landscapes.
