ON THIS PLANT
The plant features rounded juvenile foliage that eventually transitions to long, curved blue-green leaves on reddish stems, with new leaves emerging in a bronze color. It is highly valued for its distinctive white bark, which gradually darkens and then peels away in late summer to reveal fresh white bark underneath. The plant is evergreen.
