Physocarpus opulifolius Diable D'Or ('Mindia') (PBR)
ninebark
This decorative deciduous shrub is mainly grown for its colourful foliage, which emerges a vibrant coppery red and turns deeper, purple-red as it matures. In midsummer, there are also rounded clusters of near-white flowers, which offer a striking contrast.
Later in the summer and lasting well into autumn, these flowers are followed by glossy red berries. Physocarpus opulifolius Diable D'Or is a highly ornamental plant that will liven things up in the shrub border.

How to care for Physocarpus opulifolius Diable D'Or ('Mindia') (PBR):
Plant ninebark in well-drained soil and a sunny or lightly shaded spot, keeping it well watered while it settles in. Once it’s established, remove up to a quarter of the oldest stems at ground level after flowering to keep the shape fresh and encourage new growth.
Finish by spreading a 5-7cm (2-3in) layer of well-rotted compost around the base to boost soil health and help lock in moisture.
