Crimson Leaf Shrub

This average-sized shrub grows up to 2 feet (61.0 cm) tall and lives for around 48 years. It is somewhat resistant to disease and destructive insect infestation.

It has several narrow, straight stems covered in paper-thin, cracked, dark brown bark, and the wood inside is white.

The branches are short stubs with thousands of twigs that and are covered with thick bunches of miniature, asymmetrical, leaves with serrated edges. The leaves themselves are either amber or crimson, with red edges, delicate and waxy.

In late spring it produces handfuls of small, lime flowers with asymmetrical petals with a tube-like floral cup. They are hardy and have a scent whose strength depends on external factors, such as soil quality and rain frequency that smells like alcohol.
