The foliage of ‘Summer Sunset‘ is its standout feature. New growth emerges in shades of red and orange, transitioning to green as it matures. In cooler weather, the foliage often takes on brilliant shades of pink, red, and purple, giving it a dynamic, multi-seasonal appeal. Small white flowers appear in late spring to early summer. While attractive, they are not as showy as the foliage.
