Comments: Sobaria sorbifolia 'Sem' or Zhu Mei Shu or Chinese
Sobaria is a rare and unusual shrub with a branching habit. It
bears beautiful creamy-white blooms in July and August and it has
colorful foliage that starts out from bronze and changes to green, then
in the Fall they change to a gorgeous bronze-red. Zhu Mei Shu can
be trained to be a bonsai plant or grown as a specimen plant for the
landscaping garden or grown in a container as an accent plant for the
patio or deck. This attractive and unique perennial shrub makes a
great conversational piece. Chinese Sobaria is a winner in my
book.
