The 'Paradise' grows as a dense, rounded to flat topped shrub to 8' tall and 10' wide. Its new growth is a striking copper red color, and remains so for much of the year. The flowers are light pink, and appear in late winter and spring. The bark of this tree is stringy and has a dark mahogany brown color. It is a relatively adaptable variety. -Monterey Bay Nursery
