Product Description

Low-maintenance, deciduous shrub
Grows 4-6 ft. tall
Very good for planting as hedge
Rarely needs trimming

One of the most popular deciduous shrubs available, Dwarf Burning Bush is easy care and best-known for its traffic-stopping red foliage in the fall. The leaves hang on in the fall later than many shrubs and trees. Dwarf Bunning Bush leafs out rich emerald green in the spring and has pretty green foliage in the summer. Growing 4-6 ft. tall, and rarely needing trimming, it's a good choice for planting as a hedge or screen. It also is grown as a specimen or accent plant. For the best fall color, plant in full sun. Zones 4-9.
