In spring, just before the leaves, arched sprays of tiny white flowers appear and these carry a light scent. The spring foliage is a healthy, rich green and the leaves then turn orange and purple in autumn. Autumn also sees the arrival of clusters of tiny, metallic blue berries. One final show of colour comes in autumn when the vivid purple-red stems put on a show. This really is a shrub that offers year-round interest. In terms of its position, although it is a little shade tolerant, you will get the best stem colour in full sun; it makes an excellent border shrub and will be a welcome addition to any garden.
