Physocarpus Opulifolius Diable D’Or (‘Mindia’) (PBR) | 2L Pot

Beautifully coloured foliage. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: preferably acid, fertile, moist but well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: June Hardiness: fully hardy This decorative deciduous shrub is mainly grown for its colourful foliage, which emerges a vibrant coppery red and turns deeper, purple-red as it matures. In midsummer, there are also rounded clusters of near-white flowers, which offer a striking contrast. Later in the summer and lasting well into autumn, these flowers are followed by glossy red berries. A highly ornamental plant that will liven things up in the shrub border. Garden care: Once established, cut back up to one in four of the oldest stems to their base, after flowering. Then, apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the base of the plant.
