Coppertone Distylium (Distylium 'PIIDIST-II') is a compact evergreen shrub known for its attractive foliage and adaptability. Here are some key features and information about Coppertone Distylium:

  1. Foliage: One of the distinguishing features of Coppertone Distylium is its coppery-red new growth. As the foliage matures, it transforms to a dark green color. The leaves are small, elliptical, and glossy, creating a lush and attractive appearance.

  2. Size: This shrub has a compact, mounding growth habit and typically reaches a height and width of around 3 to 4 feet. Its moderate size makes it suitable for various garden settings, including foundation plantings, borders, or as a low hedge.

  3. Flowers: In late winter to early spring, Coppertone Distylium produces small, inconspicuous red flowers. While the flowers themselves may not be showy, the main ornamental appeal comes from the attractive foliage.

  4. Sun and Soil Requirements: Coppertone Distylium is known for its versatility regarding sunlight and soil conditions. It can tolerate full sun to partial shade and is adaptable to different soil types, including well-draining soils.

  5. Drought Tolerance: Once established, Coppertone Distylium exhibits good drought tolerance. This makes it a suitable choice for landscapes where water conservation is a consideration.

  6. Hardiness: This shrub is generally hardy and can thrive in a range of climates. It is often appreciated for its ability to withstand heat and humidity, making it suitable for regions with challenging growing conditions.

  7. Maintenance: Coppertone Distylium is a low-maintenance plant. Pruning is typically not required for its overall health, but occasional shaping or trimming can be done if necessary.

  8. Landscape Use: Due to its compact size and attractive foliage, Coppertone Distylium is often used for foundation plantings, mass plantings, or as a low hedge. It provides year-round interest with its evergreen nature.
