Amber Jubilee Ninebark 'Tree'

Amber Jubilee Ninebark ‘Tree’ is a colorful deciduous ornamental standard featuring orange-gold spring foliage, white blooms, and warm seasonal tones. Its trained tree form adds height, structure, and vivid foliage color to entries, borders, foundation beds, and small garden focal points.

Why choose Amber Jubilee Ninebark ‘Tree’?

Choose Amber Jubilee Ninebark ‘Tree’ for the bold foliage color of Amber Jubilee ninebark in a more formal, elevated shape. New growth emerges in shades of orange, yellow, and gold, then matures through green before taking on red and purple fall tones. The tree form makes it especially useful where a shrub would feel too wide or low, offering a polished accent for walkways, patios, mixed borders, and front-yard displays.

Key Characteristics

Botanical Name: Physocarpus opulifolius ‘Jefam’
Common Name: Amber Jubilee Ninebark Tree
Plant Type: Deciduous shrub trained as an ornamental tree form
Growth Habit: Upright standard with a rounded canopy

Amber Jubilee Ninebark ‘Tree’ Additional Information

Amber Jubilee Ninebark ‘Tree’ brings strong multi-season foliage color to the landscape. In spring, new leaves emerge in warm amber, orange, and golden tones, giving the canopy a bright, glowing appearance. Clusters of small white flowers appear in spring to early summer, adding contrast against the colorful foliage and providing appeal for visiting pollinators. During summer, the foliage settles into greener tones before shifting toward rich red and purple shades in fall.

This deciduous tree-form ninebark drops its leaves after the fall display, revealing the plant’s attractive branching and the exfoliating bark characteristic of ninebarks. Use it as a specimen near an entry, a colorful anchor in a mixed border, or a focal point in smaller beds where a taller accent is needed without the scale of a large tree. Light pruning helps maintain the rounded head and remove any shoots from the trunk or base.

Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant Amber Jubilee Ninebark ‘Tree’ in full sun with well-drained soil. Set the root ball level with the surrounding soil, keeping the trunk straight and the graft or trained head above the soil line.

2. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a strong root system. Once established, provide supplemental water during extended dry periods, especially in hot, sunny, or exposed sites.

3. Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and moderate soil temperature. Keep mulch pulled back from the trunk to protect the bark.

4. Pruning: Prune after flowering or during dormancy to maintain the rounded canopy. Remove dead, crossing, or crowded branches, and trim away any unwanted shoots from the trunk or base.
