Design Ideas
This conveniently sized native shrub hails from the colder northern states. Smaller size makes it possible in city gardens or as foundation planting underneath windows. Its pure coloring blends well with all the deciduous flowering shrubs. Line it up as a boundary hedge or plant along fence lines. Excellent in shrub borders or as a background for perennial beds. Excellent choice for all white moonlight gardens.
Prefers enriched, slightly acidic, well-drained soil. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system; reduce frequency once established. Apply a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a formal appearance, prune annually after flowering.
