- Description
-
Tiny Wine® Gold Ninebark is a cultivar with bright yellow leaves on its new growth and clusters of showy pink-white flowers that cover the plant in late spring. Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. Its attractive habit is best left unpruned, but if you must, prune it after it flowers. Keep in mind that next year's flowers will appear on old growth. The plant is easy to grow and works well for foundation plantings, as a specimen, in a shrub border, as low hedge, or containers.
