Mountain laurel is a broadleaf evergreen shrub or small tree that is native to Eastern North America where it is often found growing in rocky or sandy woods. It is noted for its excellent spring flowers and year round foliage. It typically grows as a dense rounded shrub to 5-15¿¿¿ tall, opening up and developing gnarly branches with age. Notwithstanding its usual shrub habit, mountain laurel will rarely grow as a small tree to as much as 30¿¿¿ tall.Each flower (to 1¿¿¿ across) is cup shaped with five sides and ranges in color from rose to white with purple markings inside. If not deadheaded, flowers give way to non-showy brown fruits (3/16¿¿¿ dehiscent capsules) that persist into winter.
