Bailey Nurseries

Common Name: Dark Mode™ Diervilla

Dark Mode™ Diervilla is a bold, upright native selection with purple-black foliage that holds its color all season. Recurrent yellow flowers contrast vividly against the dark leaves, adding multi-season interest and pollinator appeal. Compact at 3' tall and 3–4' wide, it finishes uniformly and works well in production, retail, and landscape settings. Bred by Bailey Innovations™, Dark Mode™ is hardy in Zones 3–8, deer resistant, and tolerant of drought and wet soils. Thriving in full sun to part shade, it performs reliably even in tough conditions. (Bailey Nurseries)
