Choose Tiny Wine® Ninebark if you want dark foliage and spring flowers in a smaller native shrub; the tradeoff is that it is more of a color accent than a privacy plant, and deer protection may matter.
Buy This If
You want dark foliage without a large ninebark.
You like spring flowers plus summer leaf color.
You need a tough native shrub for beds.
Skip This If
You need evergreen privacy.
Deer browsing is constant.
You want a clipped formal hedge.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
A-
Its dark foliage gives strong contrast in mixed plantings without relying on flowers all season.
Growth Rate
B
It fills in at a steady pace, but it is not the fastest way to cover space.
Maintenance
A-
It needs little routine work beyond shaping after bloom, though repeated shearing is not the right approach.
Deer Resistance
B+
Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy.
Small Space Fit
A
Its compact habit makes it much easier to place than larger ninebarks.
Screening Value
C
It can soften a view, but it is deciduous and too compact to serve as a main privacy screen.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Tiny Wine® when a customer likes ninebark color but does not have room for the larger selections. Give it breathing room, skip harsh shearing, and use it where its foliage can contrast with green plants.

Customers Usually Ask
Does it need pruning?
Usually very little; shape after flowering only if needed.
Will the foliage stay dark?
Best color comes with strong light; too much shade can green it up.
Is it native?
Yes, it is a compact cultivar of our native ninebark.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!

Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
