Physocarpus opulifolius
‘Summer Wine’
at Digging Dog

Physocarpus

Common Ninebark

Anywhere eye catching foliar masses are needed, the following deciduous selections can fill the bill. With a leafy, casual look, Physocarpus presents three-lobed leaves, distinctive corymbs of tightly clustered small flowers and earthy red pillow-shaped fruit along their stems. These cold tolerant, Spiraea and Neillia kin possess both a durable, yet alluring bent.

Celebrated for its sumptuous presentation of darkly colored crimson-red foliage, this extraordinary new Physocarpus ‘Nana’ and Physocarpus ‘Diablo’ hybrid is turning quite a few heads. Pinkish white flower clusters sparkle like 4th of July fireworks against the thickly set, bronzed leaves and burgundy-hued stems.

With a tidy, well-bred appearance, easily grown ‘Summer Wine’ injects a mysterious element, especially when joined by the beguiling foliage of Eucomis ‘Sparkling Burgundy’ and Cimicifuga ‘Atropurpurea’.(pp #14821)
