Physocarpus opulifolius 'Minion' brings bold colour and charm to small gardens, containers, or borders with its compact, dwarf habit and stunning seasonal foliage.
Young, maple-like leaves emerge a bright golden-yellow, creating a glowing spring display, while summer clusters of small white flowers attract bees, bumblebees and hoverflies. In autumn, the foliage transforms to fiery red-orange, and tiny red berries add further seasonal interest. Fully hardy and low maintenance, this adaptable shrub thrives in sun or partial shade and suits most soil types, offering reliable colour and wildlife appeal with minimal effort. Ultimate height and spread: 1.2m to 1.5m (4 to 4.9ft).

For more information and guidance check out our Gardening Guides.
Water regularly throughout the growing season until young Physocarpus plants are fully established. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or compost to the base of the plant. After flowering, cut back the flowered shoots to a healthy pair of buds, unless seedheads are required for late season interest.
Physocarpus opulifolius tolerates fairly hard pruning and may be cut back by half every few years to maintain a smaller size. On mature plants cut back about one quarter to one fifth of the oldest shoots to their base, to promote strong new growth.
