Name: Variegation five-leaf aralia (Eleutherococcus
sieboldianus 'Variegatua')
Zones: 4 to 8Size: Up to 8 feet tall and wide
CONDITION: Partial shade; well-drained soilPEAK TIME: All summer
The distinctive foliage of the deciduous variegated five-leaf aralia is composed of large
leaves divided into five to seven leaflets. The creamy border on the bright green foliage lights up even the darkest corners of the woodland. Its natural habit doesn't need altering,so avoid pruning it unless the shrub gets too large. If that occurs, prune it in early spring, when new growth appears, so that you can easily determine what shape the plant will take.
