Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Notes

Diablo Ninebark is a small, dense upright shrub, growing about 5 to 6 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide. The foliage emerges reddish, matures to green, and turns yellow in the fall. White flowers open in late spring. Its narrow habit makes it a nice choice for a hedge.
