Leycesteria formosa has long been popular in our gardens. Now we have a gold leafed form Leycesteria 'Golden Lanterns' (PPAF) with the same dangling clusters of purple red bracts and white flowers. The black berries are edible. The green canes persist through the winter here but will die back in colder climates. Mulch to protect.
Summer. 6 ft.
