Professional Growing Information Love these little shrubs! I have them in part sun. Color looks great all year even though it does get somewhat coppery in the freezing months. When I first bought these they were labeled at growing only about 18” wide. I see they are now labeled to grow much larger and I would agree. I will have to try and trim and shape them to stay smaller since I planted on either side of a walkway.
