Description: Originating from our highest seed collection of this species, gathered in 2003 on Yushan (4,000m) in the cool Central Mountains of Taiwan at nearly 3,000m. Where it naturally formed a multi-stemmed large shrub 4-5m tall with a broad well-branched canopy. Easily maintained as a bushy shrub with only a minimal amount of pinching-out required at critical intervals. Bearing 7 to 11 oblong-lanceolate leafleted leaves held on elegantly long dark purple petioles, while the terminal inflorescences of dark purple fruit were on long branched racemes to 50cm. An easily grown plant which has shrugged off all the weather that the past ten years has thrown at it. Best grown in a humus rich drained soil in good light, sheltered from freezing winds.
