A stunning ornamental tree that dazzles with its long-lasting creamy white bracts surrounded by a smoky pink-purple mist. The tree’s striking, rosy-smoky-purple new leaves transform to green as they mature, with some areas showing vibrant fall color. Its edible, raspberry-like fruits provide food for birds and are occasionally used for jellies and jams. With its versatile growth habit, this tree can be used as a specimen, in shrub borders, or even as a low-branched shrub for garden beds and hedges.
