Golden yellow foliage in spring progresses to bright green. Pink buds open to white spirea-like clusters. A steady clientele of butterflies and other beneficial pollinators will sample nectar from the prolific blooms. Exfoliating bark on mature branches peels in strips to reveal several layers of reddish to light brown inner bark for appealing winter interest. Physocarpus sport a bushy habit with refined leaves. P. Tiny Wine® is a smaller statured shrub and more upright than other Ninebarks. Native to North America.

Physocarpus General Information

Physocarpus are deciduous shrubs with arching branches. An easy-to-grow, all-purpose shrub will adapt to a wide variety of conditions. Spiraea-like flower clusters. Proven Winners½ selections are trialed and tested to be colorful, long blooming, carefree and easy to grow. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Physocarpus Plant Care

In late winter, prune about a third of the branches to the ground to encourage new shoots. Blooms on old wood, so shaping is best done just after flowering, and only if needed. Will naturally take on a graceful habit if left unpruned.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!
