Coppertina Ninebark has good-looking foliage from spring to fall. Spring foliage appears in a shiny copper color in the spring that changes to red as the leaves mature. This serrated and lobed three-inch leaves on this deciduous shrub will add an interesting texture to your garden. Its peeling bark will add winter interest once the leaves fall off in autumn.
This shrub also has attractive pinkish-white 5-petaled blossoms that appear in early summer on old wood. Individual flowers form close together to create 1 to 2-inch spheres near the tips of the stems. The flowers mature to form red seed heads. This plant can be grown on USDA hardiness zones 3 to 7 in full sun conditions. It will reach 6 to 8 feet in height and width in a rounded shape at maturity. Ninebarks are native to the eastern portion of the US. This shrub was selected as the 2011 Cut Flower of the Year by the ASCFG.
Coppertina Ninebark Care
Coppertina Ninebark looks best when left to grow naturally. If pruning is desired, prune soon after the flowering period to avoid removing next year’s flower buds. Coppertina ninebark was created by crossing yellow-leaved Physocarpus opulifolius ‘Darts Gold’ and purple-leaved Physocarpus opulifolius Diabolo (‘Monlo’). This plant can be used in mass plantings, as a specimen plant and in perennial or shrub borders.
Coppertina Ninebark Spacing
Space individual plants 7 to 10 feet apart. Coppertina Ninebark needs space for good air circulation to reduce the chance for powdery mildew from forming on the leaves in humid regions.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
