When its vibrant grape purple new foliage emerges with black veins in spring, youll easily be able to pick Grape Expectations out from the crowd. The broad, thick and durable, somewhat fuzzy leaves form a dense, upright mound as opposed to the wide spreading form of Blackberry Ice. As the temperatures rise, the leaves develop a bright silver coating and then turn back to very deep purple in late fall. Creamy white flowers are produced on dark purple stems in midsummer.
