Best autumn foliage of any Fothergilla. Fluffy puffs of honey-scented white flowers with a hint of chartreuse appear on branching leafless stems in spring. Foliage catches up quickly as the flowers peak, then in autumn it provides a kaleidoscope of spectacular hues of orange, yellow and red. Native to SE United States.
Weather conditions play into the color of the fall foliage, so each fall may bring different leaf tones – a natural mood ring! A cousin to Witch Hazel, Fothergilla Legend of the Fall® is a deciduous shrub that blooms on old wood. More flowers and better fall colors will be attained in sunnier locations.
