Summer Wine Ninebark is an extremely low maintenance shrub in our
climate, it is drought tolerant when established, and no pruning
is necessary, unless to harvest the branches to add to flair to floral arrangements.

Summer Wine Ninebark can also be used for hillsides or stream banks to prevent erosion.
Full sun provides the best color of the foliage, otherwise leaves take on a green tone.
Unique bark provides winter interest, and the flowers attract pollinators.

Combine with Prima Angelina sedum for some fun contrast in a sunny area of the yard.
