This compact, deciduous shrub features a bushy, upright habit and displays striking seasonal interest. Hardy in USDA Zones 6-9, it thrives in temperatures ranging from 0°F to 10°F. Its delicate, bamboo-like leaves transition to stunning burgundy hues in the fall, often deepening its ornamental appeal. While it doesn’t prominently flower, its foliage alone makes it a standout in the landscape. Favoring well-drained, slightly acidic soil, it grows to a height of approximately 3-4 feet, with a similar spread. Adaptable to a variety of garden styles, it is moderately deer-resistant and works well in borders, mass plantings, or containers. Its low maintenance nature and resilient foliage make it an exceptional choice for adding year-round texture and seasonal color to the garden.
