Description

It has taken us more than 20 years to find a Japanese aucuba that is good enough for the Proven Winners® ColorChoice® line, but we've finally found it in Lil' Dotty. Consistency was our number one requirement, and its variegation stays consistent, leaf to leaf and year to year. It also boasts a compact habit that transforms this plant into a neat and tidy option in both the container and the landscape.
