Physocarpus ‘Sweet Cherry Tea’

Physocarpus opulifolius ‘Sweet Cherry Tea’ is a striking deciduous shrub grown for its rich, cherry-red foliage that holds its colour beautifully throughout the season. Fresh new growth emerges with vibrant intensity, gradually deepening to warm burgundy tones as it matures.
Compact and easy to grow, it’s perfect for adding depth and contrast to garden borders, patios and larger containers. In early summer, clusters of soft pale pink to white flowers appear, providing a gentle contrast against the darker foliage and attracting pollinators.
This hardy variety thrives in a sunny to lightly shaded position and is well suited to UK gardens. Once established, it is relatively low maintenance and can be pruned in late winter or after flowering to maintain shape and encourage fresh, colourful growth.
Plant in well-drained soil and water regularly during dry periods, particularly while establishing. A great choice for year-round structure and seasonal interest in outdoor spaces.
Nursery Pot Size: 19cm
