Beautiful bright green foliage with white edging through the summer first emerges an eye-catching pink in spring and returns to rich pink and mauve in fall. Almost like having a burn-proof Tri-color Beech in a smaller size! Stems become a deep red through winter, rounding out the all-season appeal. Bears small clusters of tiny white flowers in late spring. Tolerates clay and alkaline soils well. Prune back in spring to ensure bright red stems in winter.
