CONNOISSEUR’S SELECTIONÂ
Majestically architectural large shrub or small upright tree of naturally layering branches in habit. Predominately golden yellow oval shaped leaves with a central christmas tree shaped splash of dark green, tinted with shades of pink and crimson towards the autumn. Clusters of small white scented flowers appear in spring.
They are suitable for many planting schemes including Japanese gardens, minimalist contemporary, mixed shrub borders as well as prairie plantings, ideal for specimen planting as a focal point in a garden for long season of interest.Â
Cultivation:
A sunny position in the shelter of other trees and shrubs is best, avoiding very hot dry sites. They will grow happily in semi shade but their flower production and colour will not be as intense.
Give them a moist, free-draining neutral to acid soil with plenty of depth and organic matter. They will tolerate slightly alkaline soils but only if the soil is deep with plenty of organic matter added.
