Its golden foliage highlights the pure white, fragrant, summer flowers and brilliant red fruit in autumn. Peeling bark adds interest to this durable hedging plant or specimen, deciduous, to 5' tall and wide, smaller than the species. Out of the hottest afternoon sun seems to suit it best for foliage color. Can take a bit of drought, but best with a little summer water. Takes well to pruning. Frost hardy in USDA zone 2.

A wonderful, very hardy, upright shrub with golden foliage., especially golden in he sunshine. In the shade the leaves take on a beautiful yellow-green shade. Very lovely for lightening up a partially shady corner. Grows 4-5' tall.

Chartreuse spring leaves turn golden yellow in summer on this multistem shrub that grows 6 x 6 feet. Responds well to severe pruning, i.e. to the ground.

The deeply lobed leaves of this small (to 4'), densely branched shrub are attractively suffused with golden color; a useful accent. Sun/Med-Damp
