*RETAIL - Aucuba japonica 'Tatsumaki'

A rather strange Aucuba variety introduced to the U.S. by famed plantsman Barry Yinger. This one has glossy pale green leaves that twist and curve in on themselves ("Tatsumaki", by the way, means "tornado" in Japanese). Plant in part sun to full shade with moist, well-drained soil and regular fertilizer to keep its deep rich green color. We have not seen this variety flower or produce fruit, but we expect it to. Cold hardy to USDA zone 7.
