Bush Honeysuckle Kodiak® Fresh 3 Gallon

Diervilla spp.

This rugged, easy-growing, native flowering shrub looks great in shade and poor soils with its lime yellow foliage emerges orangey-red, then turns glowing orange in fall. Its clusters of bright yellow flowers add contrast during the summer into fall and attract pollinators. This is a durable, low maintenance, drought tolerant native that thrives in sun or shade, and is a very useful landscape plant for difficult sites, as well as controlling erosion. Water well after planting; maintain 1" of water once a week the first year. Little pruning is needed, but it can be cut hard, down to the ground, in late winter or early spring for a fresh start. Fertilize in early spring and mid-summer with a slow release fertilizer. Follow label instructions. Mulch 2" to suppress weeds, retain moisture and protect against extremes of soil temperature. Plant with Potentilla, Boxwood and Grasses. A Proven Winners® variety.
