Description

Foliage emerges bright chartreuse yellow in spring with a tinge of red pigment in the newest leaves. It provides a bright spot of color and lacy texture to the shade garden in spring and then greens up a bit by late summer. Very tall, strong, blush red stems carry rose pink flower panicles in midsummer. ‘Amber Moon’ displays good heat tolerance and a robust habit. It is best grown in partial to full shade because of its light colored foliage. ht:34-38″ spread: 22-28″ blooms: midsummer part shade to full shade average water and consistent water; dryness leads to a quick demise, especially in sun. deer and rabbit resistant photo credit: Walters Gardens
