Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A lively plant added to mixed borders or planted in mass for multi-season color! Its narrowly ovate, gently rippled leaves are a canvas of creamy yellow, bright pink and sage green, which transition into rich golds and reds in the fall. Perhaps typically planted for its colorful foliage, but it will occasionally offer surprises of gentle, rosy-pink flowers, as well. Little pruning is necessary, but it is best done after flowering. A striking, deer resistant ornamental for small and large gardens alike. PP23212
