Description

Winter Red Cone Bush is a classic and reliable selection that shines in the cooler months. Its handsome green foliage takes on rich burgundy and purple-red hues as temperatures drop in fall and winter, providing a warm contrast to the winter landscape. During this time, it also displays its ornamental flower cones surrounded by red bracts. With a neat, rounded habit and incredible toughness, it is a cornerstone plant for adding structure and year-round, drought-tolerant beauty to the garden.

• Winter Burgundy Foliage Color: Foliage transforms from green to attractive shades of burgundy, purple, and red in autumn and winter, offering valuable cold-season interest.

• Ornamental Winter Cones: Produces its showy, cone-shaped flower heads in winter, often coinciding with the peak foliage color for a double display.

• Tidy, Rounded Habit: Maintains a compact, well-proportioned, rounded form without requiring much, if any, pruning.

• Extremely Drought & Wind Tolerant: Excellently suited to coastal and exposed gardens, thriving in poor, sandy, well-drained soils with minimal summer water.

• Versatile Landscape Shrub: Effective as a single specimen, in groups, or as a low, colorful hedge. The foliage and cones are superb in dried arrangements.
