Dwarf Burning Bush Hedge
Flame-Red Foliage in Fall
- Grows 4-6 ft tall
- Brilliant red foliage in fall
- Full Sun
Product Description
One of the most popular deciduous shrubs available! Dwarf Burning Bush provides eye-catching color and interest throughout the year. In the spring, the leaves emerge a rich, emerald green, and turn a traffic-stopping red in the fall. The red leaves cling into winter, providing much-needed color weeks after other shrubs are bare. Corky bark with winged twigs provide visual interest all winter. The manageable shrub grows 4-6 ft. tall and rarely needs trimming. Plant as a hedge or a specimen plant. For the best color, plant in full sun.
