Physocarpus opulifolius / NINE BARK

Physocarpus opulifolius, commonly known as Ninebark, is a deciduous shrub known for its striking bark and vibrant foliage. It produces clusters of small, white to pinkish flowers in late spring to early summer, which are attractive to pollinators like bees and butterflies. The plant's most notable feature is its exfoliating bark, which peels away in strips, revealing layers of new bark underneath, adding winter interest and texture to the landscape. Ninebark is also valued for its colorful foliage, which can range from deep burgundy to bright green, depending on the cultivar, and often changes with the seasons. Thriving in full sun to partial shade and adaptable to a variety of soil types, Physocarpus opulifolius is an excellent choice for hedges, borders, or as a standout specimen in the garden.
