Quick Overview:

‘Emerald ‘n’ Gold’ is primarily a low-growing, erect to semi-erect shrubby form which typically grows to 1-2′ tall and spreads to 4′ wide as a dense, sprawling, tangled, bushy mat. It features lustrous, ovate to elliptic, toothed, dark green leaves (1-1.5″ long) which are edged with gold. Leaves turn pinkish-red in fall and winter. Inconspicuous, greenish-white flowers may appear in June. Flowers are at best sparse, but are usually not present. If given support, ‘Emerald ‘n’ Gold’ will climb a wall.
