Physocarpus ‘Diablo’ is a striking ornamental flowering shrub, supplied as an XL approximately 40–50cm tall established plant in a substantial 5 litre pot. With its strong established growth, dramatic dark purple foliage and contrasting flowers, it is an excellent choice for instant gardening, providing immediate colour, structure and a more mature appearance from the moment it is planted.
‘Diablo’ is particularly prized for its beautiful deep burgundy-purple foliage, which provides superb colour and contrast throughout the growing season. During late spring and early summer, clusters of creamy-white to pale pink flowers appear against the dark leaves, creating a striking display while also attracting bees and other pollinating insects.
At approximately 40–50cm tall and established in a generous 5 litre pot, this is a substantial nursery-grown shrub offering an excellent head start over smaller young plants. Its combination of rich foliage and delicate flowers makes it ideal for mixed borders, feature planting, informal screening and colourful landscaping schemes, either planted individually or grouped for greater impact.
