Ever-changing, multi-hued foliage lends a fiery burst of color to your landscape! Dense, thorny plant features small oval leaves that emerge vibrant coral-orange in spring, gradually turning bright green in summer, then back to intense oranges and reds in fall. Subtle yellow spring flowers. The compact plant grows quickly into a narrow columnar shape without pruning, fitting perfectly into today's smaller gardens. Makes a great specimen, barrier or hedge plant and "thriller" element in sunny containers.
