    Pieris Forest Flame is very popular
    Not that easy.
    We grew several named Pieris and I still found it impossible to id them.

    You cannot begin to id them without the flowers...then it is near impossible.


    Pieris Forest Flame is very popular...
    "Leaves appear in whorls with the new foliage emerging flame red (one of the most striking features of the shrub) and fading to a creamy pink before maturing in summer to a glossy, dark green"
    I do not see this from your pics.

    Just enjoy them...what ever the cultivar name!
