This cultivar reaches 4–5 feet tall while remaining slender, making it ideal for narrow spaces, accent plantings, and contemporary landscapes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fine, delicate leaves create an airy, feathery texture that glows in morning light and provides year-round color interest—particularly vivid from spring through fall.
