Edgeworthia papyrifera 'Akebono'

Able to grow up to 7 feet high, the Edgeworthia chrysantha has lush bluish leaves that turn a rich yellow in autumn. In the winter its bare branches become host to many 1½- to 2-inch clusters of tiny tubular flowers that are both eye-catching and incredibly fragrant. It grows best in hardiness zones 7-9 and in rich organic soil with average watering. 

The 'Akebono' cultivar has red flowers.
