Blue Muffin® arrowwood arrived to great fanfare in the ornamental shrub world, based mainly on a catchy trademark name and claims of compactness or dwarf character. It still has the catchy name, but the rest of the story is that (at least here in KY) it is not compact or dwarf and seems to be behaving like most other arrowwoods.

I believe it will be a good pollinating partner for other more ornamentally significant arrowwoods blooming at the same time.
