Physocarpus Opulifolius ‘Center Glow’

Center Glow Physocarp

An ornamental shrub valued for its unique foliage and changing colours throughout the seasons. Its foliage begins as a deep purple-red hue in spring, with a lighter centre that gives the appearance of a luminous halo. In summer, the leaves turn greener, while retaining a lighter centre, and in autumn, they turn orange and red. In spring, this shrub produces clusters of small pink or white flowers. Once established, it is drought tolerant and tolerates a variety of soils. Easy to maintain, it requires light pruning in late winter or early spring to remove dead branches and encourage vigorous growth. This shrub is perfect for beds, hedges or flower gardens, adding colour and visual interest all year round.
