Amber Jubilee Ninebark is an upright-spreading native deciduous shrub with vibrant 3-5 lobed lime green foliage that emerges a showy orange with yellow veins and turns purple in fall. Small white or pink flowers bloom in late spring into summer and are followed by drooping clusters of red berries. Grows best with afternoon shade in the South and dry to medium well-drained acidic soil.
