Uses/Culture:  Erosion control, informal hedges, naturalizes well, backdrop for other plantings.  Makes an excellent privacy screen while providing protection for wildlife. Tolerates drought, dry and rocky soils, clay.  Performs well in a variety of soil types and conditions when good drainage is provided.
