Plant Information
Stachyurus 'Magpie' is a broadleaf deciduous shrub with green, red, variegated and white foliage. In spring cream and yellow flowers emerge. Attracts bees making it an excellent addition to pollinator gardens. Grows well with sun - mostly sun and regular water. Does well in well-drained soil. The long dangly flowers in spring are too beautiful, like the entire shrub has been draped in clusters of pearls. Fall foliage can put on a colorful show as well, turning rosy or golden.
