Itea General Information

Itea are low-mounding deciduous shrubs and compact in habit. Stunning on a bank or in a border. Deer resistant. Grows in full sun to deep shade. Attractive to butterflies. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Itea Plant Care

Needs little pruning. Wayward stems can be removed at any time. Over-all trimming, if desired, is best done after flowering. Flowers form on old wood.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
