Contoneaster 'Lowfast' is one of the easiest contoneaster to grow. White flowers are produced at the tips of the branches in spring and are followed by a nice crop of red berries in fall. The dark green foliage turns to a handsome reddish-purple in fall. A very drought tolerant selection.

Cotoneaster 'Lowfast' grows to 18 inches or so in heigiht and spreads to 6 feet or more as the stems will root when there is contact with soil. This makes it a great selection for hillsides, slopes or embankments where a good erosion controlling plant is needed. We also plant Cotoneaster atop retaining walls where it will naturally cascade down for a nice effect.
