A handsome hedge or filler plant with outstanding red fall foliage. Produces occasional showy white flower clusters in the summer. |

| Bloom Time | Sporadic summer blooms. |
| Deciduous/Evergreen | Deciduous |
| Special Features | Dramatic Foliage Color, Fall Color, Compact Form |
| Growth Rate | Moderate |
| Landscape Use | Border, Hedge, Ground Cover |
| Design Ideas | No flowers needed here--this handsome small shrub offers red-tinged new growth and red fall color. And between those times, its mounding habit and clean, lobed leaves are a good foil to flowering shrubs and perennials in the border. |

| Foliage Color | Green |
| Foliage Fall Color | Red |
| Companion Plants | Lilac (Syringa); Peony (Paeonia); Clematis (Clematis); Iris (Iris); Lavender (Lavandula) |
| Care Instructions | Tolerant of a wide range of soils; prefers average, loamy, well-drained soil with consistent moisture. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Fertilize before new growth begins in spring. For a tidy, neat appearance, prune annually after flowering. |
