I just bought this plant at a home warehouse store they did not really seem to know much about it. Will it grow in Phoenix? I figure if they sell it here it should grow here, right? Or will the heat kill it off? I will plant it with some shade facing north. It really is pretty so I am hoping it will grow. Thank you for letting me know if I should plant it or return it.

Very fast-growing, drought-tolerant shrub offers a fresh green color year-round. Will get beaten down by rain and wind but springs back up again quickly. Gets seriously wide if not crowded by its neighbors; prune if necessary but it looks better unpruned.
