Native to the Caucasus and Western Asia, it features exceptionally large, glossy green leaves up to 30cm long with deeply impressed parallel veins. In Summer, small yellowish-green flowers bloom inconspicuously along the stems, yielding small black fruits by late season. As temperatures cool in Autumn, the heavily ribbed foliage displays a mottled pattern, yellowing around the margins with warm tawny-brown, bronze, and dusky purplish shading between the ribs before leaf fall. Forming a sturdy, open-branched habit, it makes a distinctive foliage accent in sheltered gardens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSite:\u003c\/b\u003e Needs some shelter, especially from harsh North-Easterly winds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition\u003c\/b\u003e: Full sun, dappled shade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil: \u003c\/b\u003eMoist, fertile, well-drained soil; prefers humus-rich loam that does not dry out in Summer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeasons of interest:\u003c\/b\u003e Handsome deeply-ribbed Summer leaves and dramatic bronze-purple Autumn foliage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardiness: \u003c\/b\u003eFully hardy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight:\u003c\/b\u003e Height: 8-10ft (2.5-3m) \u003cstrong\u003eSpread:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8-10ft (2.5-3m)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImage 1 \u0026amp; 3 by \u003cspan\u003e\u003ca rel=\"author\" href=\"https:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/peganum\/\" class=\"owner-name truncate ds-link-primary-text\" title=\"Go to peganum’s photostream\" data-track=\"attributionNameClick\" id=\"yui_3_18_1_1_1793098523705_16201\"\u003epeganum\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e cropped and licensed under \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCC BY-SA 2.0\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImage 2 by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/User:Kenraiz\" title=\"User:Kenraiz\"\u003eKrzysztof Ziarnek, Kenraiz\u003c\/a\u003e cropped and licensed under \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/Category:CC-BY-SA-4.0\" title=\"Category:CC-BY-SA-4.0\"\u003eCC-BY-SA-4.0\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Future Forests","offers":[{"title":"Pot | 3L","offer_id":55520020824391,"sku":null,"price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/2750\/6590\/files\/Rhamnusimeretina.jpg?v=1793098726","url":"https:\/\/futureforests.ie\/en-gb\/products\/rhamnus-imeretina","provider":"Future Forests","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
