Excellent for sun and shade. A strong evergreen that turns purplish-red in the fall and winter. Grows 12 to 18 inches tall. One of the best for erosion control and large areas. Leaves look a lot like Asian Jasmine. Tolerates below zero temperatures (unlike Asian Jasmine) and does well in the Texas heat. Outstanding.
