Aucuba japonica Suruga Benten
Aucuba japonica ‘Suruga Benten’ is an old but rarely seen Japanese selection that is one of the most stunning clones we’ve grown. Aucuba ‘Suruga Benten’ forms a 4′ tall x 4′ wide specimen, clothed with 5″ long x 3″ wide, very serrated leaves with irregular green blotches on a leaf background that’s screaming yellow. The new foliage is almost a pure yellow-cream. Aucuba ‘Suruga Benten’ is a female clone.
