Its foliage too provides interest in the garden with autumn colours of wine-red to maroon, bright reds and orange. This cultivar has a stronger constitution than the straight species and forms a well shaped bush. Can be susceptible to root disease, this is more prevalent when planted in wet soil, with humid conditions.
