Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A dainty shrub, to about 6' with flattened, golden leaves of about 3” and charming cymes of white flowers in late spring. Orange-red fruits that arrive in late season add to the spectacle of florescent autumn color. We grow ours in dappled afternoon shade where it has been amazingly tolerant of direct sun. Requires summer water in dry places. Much slower growing than the species. Frost hardy in USDA zone 5.
