Goes thru 3 colour changes from fresh bright green in summer to reddish purple (as in pic) to bronze over winter.

A more compact bush form of the well known Elegans. The foliage is softer and more feathery. Does well for screening or for corner spots. Can be cut hard back in late summer, feed annually.
