Position: full sun or partial shadeSoil: well-drained soilRate of growth: slow to averageFlowering period: April to JuneHardiness: fully hardy

Arching pink stems carry green leaves that develop pink and white marbelling, which is more pronounced when the plant is grown in a sunny spot. In autumn, this colouring intensifies and the leaves develop a bright red hue before they fall. The clusters of soft yellow flowers in late spring and early summer, followed by red autumn berries are an added bonus.

Garden care: Requires minimal pruning. Where some pruning is required, cut back in autumn or winter, after the appearance of the autumn fruits.
