Diervilla lonicera
Diervilla lonicera, a small deciduous shrub native to the United States, is known for its vigorous growth and tubular yellow flowers that attract butterflies and birds. Its bronze-tipped green foliage turns a striking reddish burgundy in the fall, and its exfoliating bark adds winter interest. This shrub is adaptable to various light conditions and soil types, making it ideal for preventing soil erosion. It is also resistant to deer, pests, and diseases, and is drought-tolerant.
