Above is my favorite of the manzanita groundcovers, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi 'John Dourley'. This variety tends to mound higher than the species or 'Emerald Carpet' which is pictured below. It has a silvery sheen to it and the new growth on the ends of the spreading branches are an attractive crimson that matches the iconic manzanita branches. It's size varies with climate but tends to be 3'h x 8'w.
