Nursery contributed plant descriptions

We've been enthralled with the white variegation and surprising vigor of Green Mansions since we received wood from Bill Schwartz. He selected and named it at his nursery many years ago, though it's little known in the trade. Smaller in stature, as you might expect with a variegated plant, it will achieve 18' x 20' in 20 years. It doesn't burn or suffer from reversion so we heartily endorse its use.
