Pseudopanax Nigra
Pseudopanax lessonii 'Nigra'
Showy multi-branched and bushy shrub with dark shiny purple to bronze leaves in whorls of five. Really looks a picture. Indispensible in a modern landscape as a feature plant or background. Makes a good tub plant for a year or two when it's readily transplanted to the garden.
Feature:

Bold and dramatic 'evergreen' landscape colour and form.

Uses: Gardens, patio pots and borders. A particulary effective wind-break and screen when planted en masse.
Position: Sun or shade, virtually any soil. Tolerant of light frost, wind and coastal conditions. Will handle warmer areas of Zone 8 with shelter from all but light frosts.
Care: Little needed, just sit back and watch it grow. You can trim tops to help bushiness or for a low screen if desired.
