Description

✓ New leaves bronze-coloured in spring

'Pink Shell' earns its name from its unusually shaped shell-like flowers that form in drooping clusters. Buds emerge deep pink, opening to pale pink petals, that turn white over time. It has a spreading habit that will grow up to 6m high by 6m wide. New leaves are bronze at first, maturing to green and retuning to hues of orange in autumn, before falling. Will tolerate most conditions apart from very wet or shallow, chalky soil.
