This compact shrub is native to North America, attracts bees, and resists deer. This lovely native plant lends an informal, natural charm anywhere it is planted. It is especially nice grouped under trees or planted as a low hedge. It can also be incorporated into flower gardens or wildlife gardens.

Our deciduous shrubs are entering their natural dormancy phase. As part of this process, foliage is turning colors, drying out, and falling off—this is completely normal! Shedding leaves helps the plants conserve energy and prepare for the next growing season. Rest assured, your shrubs will wake up and thrive again when it's time in your growing zone. Dormancy is how they prepare for a healthy, vibrant comeback as the seasons change!
Care: This plant has an appealing natural habit and is not suited to being cut back or trimmed regularly. Fertilize every spring with Proven Winners Continuous Release Plant Food.
