Plant details
A magnificent deciduous tree with leaves ranging from pale purple with a hint of green, to deep dark purple leaves which almost look black from a distance. Since it can be cut back hard, it also makes an excellent hedge, holding on to its withered leaves over winter, giving a highly effective background for summer beds with bright colours. It has been given the Award of Garden Merit (AGM) by the Royal Horticultural Society.
