Design Ideas

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Burning Bush is usually planted as a single specimen or in a grove. It can make a good, natural hedge with changes in every season. Use to brighten dark corners in architecture or in groves of coniferous evergreens to add brilliance and a spot of seasonal color.

 

Companion Plants

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Perhaps the most colorful of all shrubs in autumn.

Combine with hardy broadleaf evergreens that will ensure its color is not compromised.

Look for Dazzler Holly (Ilex cornuta `Dazzler`), Winter Gem Boxwood (Buxus microphylla `Winter Gem`) and Cross Spreading Japanese Yew (Taxus cuspidata `Cross Spreading`).

Also looks great with conifer shrubs such as Slender Hinoki False Cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa `Gracilis`) or Hollywood Juniper (Juniperus chinensis `Torulosa`).
