About the Bloom
The Red Chocolate Shrub dazzles with its vibrant red blooms that add a pop of color to your garden throughout the spring and summer months. These crimson flowers are a sight to behold, attracting pollinators with their rich hue and delicate petals. The bloom season is a treat for the eyes, with each flower exuding a sweet fragrance that enhances the overall sensory experience of your outdoor space.
What to Know About the Plant
This evergreen shrub boasts glossy, dark green leaves that provide a lush backdrop for its striking red blooms. The Red Chocolate Shrub is a compact plant that grows up to 3-4 feet tall, making it perfect for smaller gardens or as a colorful accent in larger landscapes. Its dense foliage and upright growth habit create a neat and tidy appearance, adding a touch of elegance to any setting.
Enhancing your Fruitscape
Pair the Red Chocolate Shrub with fruit trees like Cherry, Plum, or Fig to create a visually stunning fruitscape that combines ornamental beauty with edible delights. The vibrant red blooms of this shrub complement the delicate blossoms of fruit trees, creating a harmonious blend of colors and textures. Consider adding berry plants such as Strawberry or Blueberry for a pop of color and a delicious harvest. Tropical plants like Pineapple Guava or Passion Fruit vines can add a tropical flair to your landscape, while herbs like Basil or Mint can provide aromatic foliage and culinary inspiration. By mixing edibles and ornamentals, you can create a dynamic and diverse garden that is both visually appealing and productive.

Ornamental & Landscaping Plants at Just Fruits & Exotics
Although Just Fruits and Exotics has been providing ornamental and landscaping plants to customers at our nursery since we added “Exotics” to our name in the 1990’s, we never had them available to our customers online.
However, September of 2018, with the launch of our updated Just Fruits and Exotics website, we added many of our ornamental and landscaping plants to our online store for our customers nationwide.  We encourage you to “Fruitscape†your yards, mixing edibles and ornamentals to make your own edible garden.

Shipping Information
Before Your Plants Arrive: You can find many guides on unpacking, planting, & care, on our growing guides page.
The Journey From Our Nursery to Your Door: We NEVER ship our plants bare root. Your plant will travel in the very container in which it was nurtured. We thoroughly prune and water them before packing, and make sure they’re well wrapped to retain moisture during transit. It’s as though you’ve personally collected them from our nursery!
Choose Your Ship Date: We understand you’ll want to be available when your plant arrives. Our checkout process features a handy calendar that allows you to choose the Monday on which you want your plant to ship. Depending on your location, you’ll likely receive your plant by Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of that week. Once shipped, UPS will generate a tracking number and send it to the email you provided. You can then follow your plant’s journey and ensure someone is available to unpack it on arrival day.
