This shrub prefers consistently moist, well-drained soils. Trim the roots and promptly remove root suckers if colonial spread is not wanted. It is a rapid-growing, multi-stemmed, suckering, deciduous shrub that grows to a maximum size of 5 to 8' tall on erect, usually unbranched stems. Plant them as property line screens, hedges or shrub borders. For an interesting bicolor winter stem display, combine with redtwig cultivars. ... details
