Zn 8. Unique, twiggy shrub. Small leaves.

Here's a fabulous little evergreen shrub with intricately zig-zagging black stems and tiny leaves that are dark grey on the upper surface and pale grey beneath. Its fine foliage and intricate habit make it very useful to contrast with larger leafed evergreens. This growth habit is a natural adaptation to herbivores which generally pass it by in favor of more palatable leafy plants. Although frequently seen as a low shrub 2 - 4' tall and wide it has been known to occasionally reach 10' in the Northwest. Mature plants also produce inconspicuous yellow flowers which are followed by little berries. It is easily grown in sun or part shade, quite drought tolerant, and hardy to about 10°F.

Slow-growing shrub to 8' tall for full sun or partial shade. Tolerant of alkaline soil and seaside conditions.

Interesting container plant with fragrant, star-like yellow flowers in late spring.
