Fine Line rhamnus has been a best-seller for years - and it just got a whole lot better! Introducing Fine Line Improved, a unique update that is lush and full, from tip to toe. This makes it an even better as a space-saving hedge, and gives it even more presence as a specimen. However you like to use this versatile-yet-exotic-looking, Fine Line Improved will do it even better than the original. Like the original, it sets far fewer fruits than weedy buckthorns, and among the fruits that do develop, only a very low percentage are capable of germination.
