Alouette Ninebark is a native deciduous shrub with an upright rounded habit and dramatic foliage that emerges a mix of copper, orange, and green and can keep some intensity in full sun or fade to green with shade. Small pinkish buds open to creamy white flower bloom in dense clusters in late spring. Grows best with afternoon shade in the South and dry to medium well-drained acidic soil.
