Comments:
Semi-evergreen in upper part of its growing range. Used as a ground cover and in mass plantings. Has red fall color. Produce stiff, recurving branches. Excellent ground cover but not very competitive against weeds. Young plants tend to be unattractive until they become well established and begin to grow and develop the distinctive cotoneaster form.
