Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Cinnamon Girl is considered the most cold hardy Distylium to zone 7a. It also has the smallest, darkest blue-green leaves and the most colorful new growth - it's plum purple and very showy. For these reasons, it's my absolute favorite Distylium. It's as heat tolerant, drought tolerant, and tough as any other Distylium kid on the block. First Editions Plants, thank you for Cinnamon Girl Distylium for our gardens!
