Plant Spotlight of the week: Diablo Ninebark
This medium to slightly larger than average sized shrub offers rich purplish foliage and vigorous growth. Handsome clusters of small red buds open to small white blossoms on old wood, and the plant can be cut back aggressively to both maintain a desired size and stimulate vibrant fresh foliar growth.
Best planted in full sun, Diablo will perform quite well in half day sun. Allow plenty of room for these shrubs which can quickly grow to 6 to 8 feet tall and wide, as it provides a rich color complement to the earth tone colors found in many new dwellings.
