Default Wrong Colour Leaves

In article -
september.org, says...

Neighbour has this copper coloured shrub, about 1 meter high.
It is an evergreen (or should that be evercopper!) but just a
few shoots have a mixture of copper and some green leaves. He
is no real gardener, these were planted for him, but wonders
why - so do I.

Pictures are at:

Pictures 1 & 2 show the green area. There are both green and
copper on the same branch. The green leaves seem to have
started yellowing a bit (Pic 1).

Picture 3 shows a bi-coloured leaf

Picture 4 shows the whole bush


Sorry, the link got truncated/wrapped by my news reader. You
need the whole 2 lines! (Some readers may realise this)
