Ninebark
Physocarpus opulifolius ‘SMPOTW’ Tiny Wine®
Compact and colorful, showy and dainty, this Ninebark cultivar is an exquisite dwarf, deciduous shrub. It is the shrub that keeps giving, providing beautiful aesthetics through all four seasons. Its striking dark purple-maroon foliage with exfoliating light brown-red stems dazzle in the summer and fall, and the white-pink, abundant flower clusters are eye catching in the spring. Following the flower display, fleshy, purple-red seed capsules delicately droop and sway in the wind. This dwarf native shrub is perfect for small spaces, containers, and hedges.
