This compact, deciduous shrub displays a mounded habit, making it an attractive choice for borders, foundation plantings, or mass landscaping. Suitable for USDA hardiness zones 4-8, it thrives in temperatures ranging from -30°F to 30°F. The foliage starts as a vibrant lemon-yellow in spring, transitioning to a golden hue throughout the summer and often deepening to a warm orange in the fall. Clusters of small, bright pink flowers bloom prolifically in late spring to early summer, attracting pollinators. Growing to a mature height of 1-2 feet with a similar spread, it forms a rounded shape. This low-maintenance plant is deer-resistant and prefers well-drained soil with full sun exposure for optimal color and growth. It’s an excellent choice for adding year-round interest to small spaces or container gardens.
