Enkianthus campanulatus is a medium-sized, narrow, upright deciduous shrub in the Ericaceae, noted for its red‑veined, bell‑shaped flowers that appear in May–June. The glossy leaves develop strong coppery to red tones in autumn. It favours acid, well‑drained soil and a position from full sun to part shade. A spring feed before new growth helps support flowering.

Enkianthus campanulatus offers red‑veined bell flowers in May–June and coppery to red autumn leaf colour.

Enkianthus is a genus of shrubs or small trees in the heath family, Ericaceae. Its native range is in Asia, as far west as the eastern Himalayas, as far south as Indochina, and as far north and east as China and Japan.
