Following the spring blooms is dark green leaves that remain on the plant until fall. As temperatures drop, the green foliage will turn to shades of red and purple to put on a show of fall colors before going dormant.

Graceful arching branches shoot up and lean over from the weight of the spring flowers and foliage to put on a dramatic display.
