This stunning multistemmed deciduous shrub has it all: superlative color appealing form and good looks that last all year long. It’s adaptable in terms of soil conditions and is drought resistant and easy to grow and a rapid grower.The main claim to fame for ‘Diablo’ is the deep burgundy color of its maplelike foliage. It bears the most deeply hued leaves of any woody plant and it doesn’t get greener with the onset of summer heat.
