Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.

  • Description

  • Notes

This kerria has the same upward, arching habit as the species, and the same bright green wood. The flowers, though are double-petaled, and sometimes nearly pom-pom-like. Grows about 8 to 10 feet tall and wide. Very well suited to a cottage or country-styled garden.
