Tiny Wine® Gold Physocarpus is just what its name implies. Tiny Wine®...but with yellow foliage. Like the original Tiny Wine ninebark, it is a compact plant with fine texture and good mildew resistance.
Physocarpus is best in full sun, and does like to have good air circulation. This variety will grow 3-5' tall and wide, and is hardy to USDA Zone 3. Tiny Wine® Gold is a heavy blooming plant that is very showy right when customers are in the garden center.
Ninebark is a tough, durable, native plant, and I'm really happy that it has become a popular plant for gardens and landscapes. If you've got a site that's sunny and windy, give it a try!
