Orange and yellow new growth
At one time or another, everyone has stood in awe at the beautiful orange and red colors of a summer sunset, particularly in the south where the sky puts on a dramatic show. This new Cleyera from breeder Richard Davis offers a similar, unique pallet of color that grants new opportunities for use. A bright-yellow, evergreen shrub, the new growth glows in hues of copper and orange. Impactful when used in foundation plantings or in large drifts, look for a place where Carolina Sunset can really show off and then sit back, relax and enjoy the evening.
