Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Ebony Conebush is a sport from the popular and tough L. 'Safari Sunset' and exhibits the same garden vigor. Although a little slow to establish, growth powers on after a season in the ground or fast in a container. Contrast against a light-colored wall or plant for a dramatic effect. An excellent cut flower.
