Kolkwitzia amabilis 'DREAM CATCHER' WW45 Beauty Bush R1-
Kolkwitzia amabilis 'DREAM CATCHER' WW45 Beauty Bush R1- (China Native) Beauty Bush, Mature plant size: 8x6ft., Pinkish white flowers in early spring. Yellow foliage., USDA Hardiness Zone 4, Michigan Bloom Month 6a, In Garden Bed R1 for 13.1 YEARS (Meijer~$2). Planted in 2009.
Kolkwitzia amabilis 'Maradco' [DREAM CATCHER]. Closely related to Weigela and Diervilla. Part sun. Deciduous shrub, 6-10 ft, upright aching, exfoliating bark, foliage mostly in upper part of plant, may become leggy. Suckering. Hard prunings to the ground may be performed in late winter or immediately after flowering. Planted in 2009. Native to central China.
I have not tried hard prunning to the ground, maybe this fall. I do trim every year. I find it to be an attractive shrub. It does sucker, but not too bad.
