Say hello to the world's first black diervilla that stays jet black all season long, KODIAK JET BLACK™!  Other dark diervillas tend to fade in summer, but not KODIAK JET BLACK™.  This shrub maintains its deep, striking black foliage, while sporting bright yellow flowers in the summer.  Everyone who visits your garden (pollinators included) will be drawn to this fabulous shrub!  As a bonus, cut a few stems to use as a foliage filler in your cut flower arrangements.

The optimum amount of sun or shade each plant needs to thrive: Full Sun (6+ hours), Part Sun (4-6 hours), Full Shade (up to 4 hours).

Uses Notes:  

Vibrant foliage looks best when used in shrub borders, mixed borders, edging, groundcover, and in containers.

Maintenance Notes: 

Prefers well-drained soils but fairly adaptable to other soil types.  If necessary, prune immediately after the spring bloom. Best flowering occurs in full sun, but light shade isn't harmful, particularly in warmer climates.

If desired, fertilize in early spring with a granular fertilizer formulated for woody plants, like a rose fertilizer.
