Add bright spring color to shaded borders with Kerria japonica 'Pleniflora' (Double Japanese Kerria 'Pleniflora'). You get arching green stems and fully double, pom-pom-like yellow flowers that light up the garden in spring, followed by fresh green foliage on a multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub.

Plant it where you have partial shade to shade, especially in regions with warm summers. Average, well-drained soil is ideal, and consistent moisture helps it establish; once established it can handle some dry spells. Mature size is typically about 48-72 inches tall, with a wide, graceful spread (often 72-96 inches) as the stems arch outward and the plant slowly expands from the base.

Use it as a specimen, informal hedge, or in a mixed shrub border. After flowering, you can prune to shape and to encourage strong new shoots for next season's bloom. For older plants, remove a few of the oldest stems at ground level to refresh the clump and keep flowering vigorous. Deer resistance makes it a reliable choice in many landscapes.
