Deutzia General Information:

Deutzia is an outstanding low growing woody perennial/dwarf shrub introduced by the National Arboretum. Well suited for small spaces or used as a groundcover, it is an elite plant for any garden. Its gently arching branches are covered by flowers in late April and early May. Highly effective in containers or cascading over a low wall.

Deutzia Plant Care:

Buds are set on previous years growth, so any pruning should be done just after flowers fade. Periodic thinning of branches will maintain the arching form. Pest resistant. Very easy to grow in any fertile soil. Benefits from light afternoon shade in areas with high temperatures.
