Metapanax 'Stout' Winter Interest in great abundance but smallA Cistus introduction. A particulary robust clone, of an already desirable evergreen Aralia relative, has rather thickened compound leaves, more Schefflera like than its brethren. A graceful shrub or small tree, these have a sturdy form, maintaining an upright stance. Mature plants produce late summer clusters of white flowers that become black berries providing winter food for the birds. Dappled sun to part shade and rich, moist soil are best. 12ft
