Kodiak® Orange Diervilla

[Proven Winners](https://www.provenwinners.com/plants/diervilla/kodiak-orange-diervilla-x) ## Garden Use This hardy North American native works in borders and mass plantings, including sites with dry shade. It tolerates a wide range of light, though foliage color is strongest where it receives some sun. The flowers attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, and deer generally leave the shrub alone.

Once established, the shrub tolerates dry conditions and can help cover a bank or fill a challenging shaded area. Give it enough room for its natural spreading habit. ## Maintenance This selection blooms on new wood. If shaping is needed, trim lightly before spring growth begins, then let the shrub develop its summer flowers and fall color.
