A deciduous open shrub with strong young flexuous shoots bearing ovate long-pointed thin-textured leaves, quite different from our other collections gathered in this area. Producing overwintering pendant racemes of fat flower bud by late autumn, which open April-May. Height 3m spread 3m. Shelter, retentive soil.
