Mahonia eurybracteata ‘Cistus Silvers’ Larger Trees are variable in color withFireworks for the shade! We've been playing around for some time selecting these platinum seedlings (now seen as M. eurybracteata). To 5' tall with few branches and rosettes of long graceful leaves emerging bronze (lots of precious metals here). Fall and winter flowers of bright yellow blushed.. um.. copper. Easy in dappled shade, but remarkably sun tolerant if provided with afternoon shade. Best with reliable summer water in any well drained soil.
