Colorful pops of fresh color all from spring through fall in sun or shade though colors may vary a bit. New leaves emerge bright red-orange and age to a vibrant lime-green. Bright yellow flowers bloom all summer, providing food for pollinators. Rounding out the growing season with a bang, fall foliage becomes a brilliant orange. Tolerates dry soils and drought. Durable and low maintenance. May burn in afternoon sun here in Utah, providing a cooler location or some shade will help.
