Read detailed description :

Sturdy suckering shrub, forming a dense bush, with well erect branches. Branches are bright red, decorative in winter. Deciduous leaves identical in shape to those of the C. alba, golden-yellow in spring and then orange-yellow in summer. In autumn, their colour becomes a remarkable pink-red. Superb, isolated, in a group, in front of a hedge. Plant with shrubs of darker foliage or seasonal red or blue flowering. Good in a hedge, with other bushy and decorative shrubs.
