Awesome Semp " Raspberry Ice" Supposed to get very large up to 9" but mine hasn't gotten over 6-6 1/2" but it is really nice & full. and clumps up very nicely
Beautiful Fuzzy Blue-Green color late Spring thru Summer. Fall starts to turn Mostly Red thru the Winter season. Early Spring starts to turn back Green again. The Knockout color occurs about the last week of May here in Va, when the last of the Red color is a wide stripe down the center of the leave. Late doing that this year and didn't get the full effect of the changeover
