IMAGE SHOWS A MATURE SHRUB
Bright, bold, and easy to grow, Dart’s Gold Ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius 'Dart's Gold') is a standout deciduous shrub prized for its vibrant golden foliage and rugged adaptability. Emerging in spring with brilliant chartreuse-yellow leaves, this shrub adds instant color to the landscape. As summer progresses, the foliage softens to a warm yellow-green, providing a beautiful contrast to its clusters of small, white to pale pink flowers that bloom in late spring to early summer.
With a naturally rounded habit and mature size of 4 to 5 feet tall and wide, Dart’s Gold is ideal for borders, hedges, foundation plantings, or as a colorful backdrop in mixed shrub beds. Its exfoliating bark adds year-round interest, especially in winter, when the peeling layers of reddish-brown bark reveal additional texture and color.
