Beautiful double, pink flowers cover the branches in early spring before foliage emerges, making it one of the showiest spring shrubs. Toothed green foliage turns yellow-bronze in fall making it a multi-seasonal colour contrast shrub with no fruit. Best flower display in a sunny, sheltered area. Drought tolerant once established: prefers well-drained soil and does not do well in standing water. Fertilize in spring with a good compost or an all purpose fertilizer before new growth emerges. Blooms on old wood: annual pruning right after flowering helps keep the shrub dense and compact; any winter die back can be pruned out as needed.
Available in select potted sizes.
