On the website, the marked adult size is 1m20 and on the label it's 90 cm (35in). I was planning to put the young plant in a small hedge, so I am disappointed.

Description
The Diervilla 'Kodiak Orange' is part of a series of recent varieties selected in the USA for its compact habit, long flowering period, ease of cultivation and remarkably coloured foliage. This cultivar has the particularity of forming purple-orange young shoots in spring that contrast beautifully in summer with its charming clusters of sulphur yellow tubular flowers that even appear in the shade. Its modest size and undemanding nature make it an ideal bush to adorn difficult corners such as woodlands and small gardens.
The Diervilla Kodiak Orange is a horticultural selection derived from the Diervilla rivularis, a species native to the woodlands of the southern United States. This suckering shrub of the Caprifoliaceae family has a bushy but spreading habit, with multiple stems originating from the base and the ability to cover the ground quite effectively. When mature, it will reach 1.20 m (3 ft 11 in) in all directions, with its lateral growth being fairly easy to control by removing suckers or by planting other vigorous woodland plants alongside it. The foliage consists of ovate, elongated leaves with pointed tips and slightly wavy edges. The leaves are purple-orange in spring, partially turning green in summer, before taking on bright orange hues in autumn. At the end of the season, the leaves dry up and fall off. Its summer flowering, appreciated by pollinating insects, occurs from June to August. Its pale yellow flowers, gathered in clusters, will bloom on the previous year's wood, displaying a lovely purple colour. This Diervilla will provide you with abundant flowering, even in shaded areas and in the roots of trees where it particularly thrives. It will thrive in all exposures, including shade, and in areas of the garden that are sometimes difficult to landscape.
A low-maintenance ground cover, it is suited to all exposures and all types of soil without excessive limestone and not too dry. Its small growth is ideal for small gardens, enclosed spaces, or steep slopes. It retains and stabilises slopes thanks to its suckers (underground stems carrying roots). It is also an ideal choice for filling in an undergrowth. It will work very well in a rose garden or in combination with medium-sized perennials such as Nepetas and shrubs with colourful stems, such as dogwoods.

Planting and care
The Diervilla 'Kodiak Orange' is a plant that can grow well in different types of soil and light conditions depending on the area you live in. Cooler areas with full sun will suit this plant, while warmer areas will require partial shade or full shade. The soil should be well-prepared, moist, and rich, but not too dry or chalky. To promote abundant flowering, it's best to prune the branches in late autumn or winter, and to cut the plant shorter every three years.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
