Native to New Zealand and known as Sunburst Kohuhu, its captivating variegated foliage and the dance of its lush, glossy leaves capture the eye, while presenting a unique pop of color to any garden setting. Standing tall and wide up to 3-5 meters, it thrives under sun-drenched skies as well as yielding partial shade, proving its versatility in different environments. Once late spring comes around, the whimsical production of small, bell-shaped, dark purple flowers reveal themselves providing a charming balance against its lustrous leaves.
