Physocarpus (Ninebarks)
2 products
Physocarpus, commonly known as ninebark, is a hardy deciduous shrub native to North America but well-suited to UK gardens. Its dense, layered branches provide excellent shelter for birds and small mammals. The clusters of white or pink flowers in early summer attract pollinators like bees and hoverflies.
In autumn, the plant produces small red fruit that birds may eat. The peeling bark adds winter interest and creates hiding spots for insects. Physocarpus thrives in a range of soils and tolerates both sun and partial shade, making it a versatile choice for wildlife-friendly planting schemes.
