The best of the red spring color types, 'Shindeshojo' emerges bright cherry red early in spring for a brilliant display of color.Leaves develop a brick red edge and slowly turn to a light green.New growth continues to push through June creating layers of color.

Excellent heat tolerance, will grow in full sun, needs protection from late frosts.
