Description

The 'Ivanhoe' is a fast growing shrub to a size of 10'-15' tall and wide with a conspicuous spreading, horizontal appearance to the branches. Its long leaves are deeply cut, almost in a pinnate form. Showy toothbrush clusters of salmon and rose flowers appear in winter and spring, along with some fall bloom. Its new growth is bronzy. The shrub is adaptable, and tolerates moderate watering or extended drought.

Water Saving Tip:

Fix leaking sprinklers, valves, and pipes.

One broken spray sprinkler can waste 10 gallons per minute - or 100 gallons in a typical 10 minute watering cycle.
