Variegata' _ 'Variegata' is a broadleaf evergreen shrub bearing leaves with a white margin, which may be tinged pink in spring, and drooping white flowers.
Water Japanese pieris deeply about once a week. The soil should be moist to about 3 inches deep in the soil. If it feels dry, water it. Avoid over-saturating the soil.
Cut off any spent flowers with pruning shears. Trim back overgrown or diseased branches at their base as needed during the growing season; otherwise, Japanese pieris requires little pruning.
Fertilize Japanese pieris with 10-10-10 granulated fertilizer at a rate of 1 pound per 100 square feet. Cottonseed meal is an organic alternative that works well for acid-loving plants. Apply the fertilizer once in late winter before flowering and in the early spring after the blooms are spent. Spread it evenly beneath the shrub. Water the shrub thoroughly after the application to incorporate it into the soil.
