The Story

A stunning display of fragrant summer blooms

Imagine filling your garden with sweet fragrances and vibrant blooms that brighten up your landscape. This shrub offers just that! With its abundant summer flowers, the plant produces lovely clusters of white blooms that not only catch your eye but also delight your senses. The gentle scent wafts through the air, inviting you to stop and enjoy the natural beauty.

Beyond its aesthetic charm, this shrub plays a vital role in your garden's ecosystem. It attracts numerous pollinators, including bees and butterflies, creating a lively atmosphere that supports local wildlife. Planting it isn't just about enhancing your landscape; it’s also about contributing to the health of the environment around you. Ideal for borders or as a focal point in your garden, this shrub adds dimension and texture while providing a haven for beneficial creatures.

About Proven Winners®: Proven Winners® ColorChoice Shrubs offers flowering shrubs, evergreens, and trees that have been tested for eight to ten years to ensure they outperform conventional varieties. That means bigger flowers, more colorful foliage, reblooming, disease resistance, new habits, or anything that makes them more beautiful and easier to grow in your landscape or garden.

Planting & Care

1. Planting: Choose a location with well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and about as deep, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface. Gently place the shrub in the hole, backfill with soil, and water well. Space plants about 3-4 feet apart for optimal growth and air circulation.

2. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the initial growing season. Once established, this shrub is somewhat drought-tolerant but thrives best with regular watering during dry spells. Monitor the soil and water deeply when it feels dry an inch below the surface.

3. Pruning: Prune the shrub in late winter or early spring to promote healthy growth and maintain its shape. Remove any dead or weak branches and thin out excessive growth to improve air circulation. Light pruning can also enhance flowering.

4. Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring to encourage healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers. Follow up with a light application in mid-summer if growth seems sluggish.
