This deciduous shrub boasts a rounded and upright habit with a mature height of 8–10 feet and a similar spread. Recommended for hardiness zones 3–7, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and tolerates a wide range of soil types, including clay, as long as they are well-drained. Its golden-yellow foliage provides stunning color throughout the growing season, transitioning to warm, subtle tones in the fall. Clusters of small, white to pale pink blooms appear in late spring to early summer, adding ornamental appeal. In late summer, it may produce small red fruit capsules that attract wildlife. This shrub is known for its excellent deer resistance and is a resilient choice for low-maintenance landscapes. Best utilized in mixed borders, hedges, or as a striking focal point.
