Arctostaphylos edmundsii ‘Carmel Sur’ shows good tolerance of heat, sun and periodic summer irrigation. This low spreading cultivar can reach 18 in. high and eventually spread 7-10 ft. across.
The Carmel Sur manzanita is best suited to monthly deep watering schedules. Avoid planting in areas of hot summer afternoon sun; good drainage is essential. This handsome foliage plant provides dense and uniform character on banks and for cascading over walls. (https://waterwisegardenplanner.org)
