Best Red features flawless near black foliage that emerges in early spring, followed by masses of vivid red blooms from summer until frost. When planted en masse the Diamonds in the Dark Best Red creates a vibrant show of colour. The compact growth habit makes this an attractive hedge or a beautiful tree to line the driveway or fence. Also perfect for planting in decorative pots to place on the deck, porch or balcony.
