Physocarpus opulifolius ‘Monlo’
(Diablo Ninebark)
Type: shrub

A gorgeous deciduous shrub growing 5 - 9 ft. tall
and wide. The striking purple foliage is the perfect foil for the white,
blushed pink flower clusters that appear in early summer. Plant in sun or
shade, but good light is required to maintain foliage color. Very hardy and
tolerant of poor soils and deer.
