Deciduous, multi-stemmed, dense, rounded shrub or small tree. Foliage is green, turning to a brilliant reddish purple in the fall, especially in colder zones. Orange flowers appear in late January to February through March. Branches may hang very low and it will often sucker and form colonies. Great plant for a screen or unpruned hedge! Growth Rate medium
