A colorful, shaggy mound of gold threads with colorful reddish new growth. Foliage is more deeply cut than 'Sutherland Gold' or Black Lace™; resulting in a compact irregular mound with extremely fine texture. White spring flowers produce red fruit that's attractive to birds in fall. Will tolerate full sun in northern climates, but prefers light shade in more southern areas. Foliage adds interest to cut flower arrangements.
