More Information

Description Super durable native shrub with effortless good looks, Kodiak® Black diervilla (Diervilla rivularis) is the perfect addition to low-maintenance landscapes. Foliage emerges a rich dark purple-black in spring, lasting until fall when it takes on vivid red tones. This diervilla boasts yellow flowers in summer, attracting pollinators. Naturally growing with a nice rounded shape, it's ideal for low maintenance hedges, landscaping, and native plant gardens. Grows well in sun, part sun, and shade environments. While sometimes called bush honeysuckle, this diervilla is not invasive. Details How To Grow

Positive results thus far

Plants seem to have acclimated well and are growing quite well at this point. We have yet to see how they survive a Michigan winter. I was skeptical about mail order plants, but these arrived in excellent condition using well thought out packaging.
