About
This lovely accent tree is prized for its beautiful deep reddish-purple leaf color and rounded form. Combines well with liriope, bleeding heart and ornamental grasses, or makes a magnificent specimen or a perfect small landscape tree for entrances or patios. Attractive fall color extends the season. Virtually care-free.
