Product Details

Ninebark combines ornamental appeal with significant ecological value, serving as a magnet for beneficial insects. Offered as potted stock grown in root-prune pouches, this shrub allows for a flexible planting window throughout the growing season. The production method is designed to support the development of a root system that aids in successful establishment.

Physocarpus opulifolius features distinctive strips of peeling bark with red undertones and an arching growth habit. The blooms are highly attractive to native pollinators, especially solitary mining bees, contributing to high insect diversity. Foliage color can vary, with red or green options available.

Ninebark is an excellent choice for riparian buffers or areas requiring erosion control, such as stream banks. It grows to a mature size of 10 feet tall and 7 feet wide and performs well in zones 3-7. The plant thrives in well-drained ground near creek beds but tolerates a wide range of moisture levels from wet to dry.

The use of root-prune pouches encourages a root structure that helps the plant transition effectively to the ground. With proper care, ninebark can establish in a variety of site conditions, providing long-term habitat and soil stability.
