Dense, deciduous, mounding shrub with beautiful yellow flowers tinged with orange-copper from June until the first frost in fall. Fine-textured green foliage throughout the season turns yellow-brown in the fall. To maintain a neat appearance, remove old canes or cut back to the ground. Great choice for a color spot in the shrub border or as an accent plant. Very cold hardy and drought tolerant. Growth Rate medium
