We first had a Diablo Ninebark and after a few years it was too large for the location. So out it came and in went LC Ninebark with its advertised size as 2 to 3 feet width and height. Well after a few years it is over 4 feet in height even with selective pruning each year. Except for the size we like LC very much. Might there be a "latest and greatest" Ninebark that has proven itself to be truly smaller than say LC?
