Attractive variegated light green foliage. Plant in a sunny spot and prune after flowering. Deciduous. This shrub is quite a sight in full flower. The 'florida' part of the botanical name means 'floriferous' (not where it goes for its holidays) or to put it simply lots of flowers. An irresistible sight when in full bloom. Flower colour: Pink.
