In early spring vibrant yellow-green foliage emerges followed by tiny orange-red flower buds in June. As the mauve flowers awaken from their buds in August, the overall visual effect is a rainbow tie-dye. Blooms linger into October, and maybe longer. Salmon-red foliage turns dark brick-red in late fall through winter. So far, this is among our top favorites. Upright habit. Z4. BACK! (4" pots)
