Physocarpus opulifolius ‘Dart’s Gold’

Dart's Gold Ninebark is a stunning shrub with bright and attractive foliage that adds a pop of color to any landscape. The leaves are a vibrant golden-yellow that contrasts beautifully with darker coloured plants in your landscape, and in the spring it has clusters of small pinky white flowers that attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. It is an easy-to-grow and low-maintenance plant that can thrive in a wide variety of soils and light conditions. With a mature height of 5-6 feet, it is an excellent choice for hedges, borders or as a standalone feature. Best practices for pruning in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and promote new growth.
