We always try to have this amazing plat available. Problem is its slow and hard to root. We tried to get a national propagator to have make more available. We would need to order 5,000 per year. Wow! This yakushimanum x pseudochrysanthum has lovely deep green leaves with silver indumentums. Flowers are apple blossom.

Dark green leaves have a silvery tomentum most of the year and pale gray indumentum. Can be grown for its foliage only. Very choice and rarely available.
