A dwarf tree with tiny leaves that emerge a pinkish orange with a splash of pink, then change to a variegated green and cream in summer. The cooler days of autumn bring on bright red foliage. Showy red branches are present year round but provide special winter interest. The best color will be present if grown in some shade.
Yearly Care Instructions- Prune lightly in late winter or early spring, avoiding heavy cuts. Water consistently, especially during hot spells, and mulch to protect roots. Feed lightly in spring.
Trimming Instructions- Light pruning in late winter or summer to shape. Avoid harsh pruning to preserve delicate structure.

Fertilizer Recommendation- Tree-tone
