much branched shrub suitable for the large

ted to a dry, sunny position. Foliage pale

scarlet in color. I have observed no sucker- 
ing, so prevalent with other species. Bushes

Grape, rarely over six to eight inches in 
height, has evergreen foliage resembling 
holly, and is a fine cover plant for dry soil
