The Common Ninebark, Physocarpus opulifolius, is an upright, mound shaped spreading shrub with recurved branches. It displays large clusters of spiraea-like white flowers in summer, then attractive and persistent fruit pods in the fall. It has arching branches, yellow fall color, and exfoliating bark. Common ninebark flowers are an excellent nectar source; the fruits are eaten by several species of birds. Its autumn color is a pure yellow. Common Ninebark tolerates both wet and dry sites; tolerates alkaline soil; habitat is usually moist, well drained soils along streams and rocky slopes. Fast growing and adaptable, Common Ninebark provides season-long color to either the home garden or commercial landscape.
