Varied Foliage Color and Texture Create Long-lasting Display

This plant combination for part sun is anchored by the deep green, exotic foliage of the hardy schefflera coupled with the dense, whorled, gold foliage of the dwarf hinoki. In spring, the peachy keen flowers of the geum pair scrumptiously with the fresh foliage of the autumn fern and Heuchera 'Delta Dawn'. The red foliage and compact rounded form of the dwarf barberry adds a pleasing contrast of form and color.
