Read detailed description :

Very original leaves, purple in spring, then soft green widely washed with white and pink. Inconspicuous perfumed white flowers of 1.5 cm diameter in June. Hardy plant, becoming more colourful with age. Plant with small development for a kiwi, interesting for small spaces. Our plant is a male clone. For a good colouring, avoid excessive shade. Prefers cool, rich, non-chalky, drained soil. Excellent against a wall to the North or to the East.
