Kerria Pleniflora, also known as Japanese Rose or Kerria Japonica, is a fast-growing shrub with deciduous foliage and elegant, double yellow flowers. "Pleniflora" is a versatile blooming, deciduous shrub. Its foliage is composed of light green leaves with veins and jagged edges in a lanceolate shape, with a length of approximately 10 cm. The wonderful blooms are a vibrant golden orange in a double-flower form that erupt throughout the plant. Tolerates most soil types as long as they are well-drained. It does well in sun to partial sun, as long as it can maintain proper levels of moisture. As it can be very attractive with its multitudes of blooms, this variety does well for woodland gardens and for more rustic settings like a wild garden or natural growth area near or around a cottage. Few if any problems will be encountered with this plant, although it can suffer a couple different blights, it is generally pest free. Propagates via suckers and this requires sufficient control in order to prevent the plant from becoming unnecessarily dense and unruly. Pruning is suggested immediately after flowering in order to help control plant growth and prepare the plant for the following seasons blooming.
