Description

'Kalebab' is a small tree with a remarkable transformation of color. In spring, the shap thin needles are light green on the underside and white on the topside giving the tree a light appearance. A medium green in summer changes to bronze in autumn, followed by a remarkable orange yellow in winter. The main branches are at a narrowly recurved angle. The terminals of the delicate red stems droop over creating a dense clumping habit suitable for larger gardens.
