    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    This cultivar, shared with us by plantsman Ted Stephens, displays cream-tinted, pink splashed leaves which merge beautifully with the red petioles and new stems. Lovely upright flowers age gracefully through summer, becoming tawny seedheads for winter display. The older bark flakes a golden color, so best placed to catch the winter sun. Grows 5 ft tall, easily trained to 10 ft, and 5 ft wide. Afternoon shade in hottest climates and periodic water in summer. Frost hardy to 0F, USDA zone 7.
