Description en: Genus of one species of spreading, deciduous, semi-evergreen, or evergreen shrub or tree, found in moist woodland from S.E. USA to N. South America and Brazil. It is grown for its colourful autumn foliage, arranged alternately or occasionally in whorls, and for its long racemes of small, cup-shaped flowers, 5mm (1/4in) long. C. racemiflora varies in hardiness according to its origin. In frost-prone climates, it is important to select stock from the northerly parts of the range to ensure that plants are hardy. Grow in a sheltered shrub border. In milder areas (particularly with hot summers), it grows vigorously and is evergreen.
