Atlantic Ninebark is an upright-spreading native deciduous shrub with exfoliating bark on mature branches that strips back in several layers. The dull green lobed foliage turns an undistinguished yellow in fall. Dense clusters of small white or pink flowers bloom in late spring into summer and are followed by drooping clusters of red seed capsules. Grows best with afternoon shade in the South and dry to medium well-drained acidic soil.
