| Description | A low-growing dwarf shrub with bright green leaves on arching branches, that becomes a wonderful and very showy accent when covered by white double blooms in spring. Foliage turns a deep burgundy color in fall. A wonderful addition to sunny shrub borders. Deciduous. |
|---|---|
| Bloom Time | Spring |
| Deciduous/Evergreen | Deciduous |
| Special Features | Fall Color, Non-toxic to Cats and Dogs, Attracts Pollinators, Compact Form |
| Problems/Solutions | Deer Resistant |
| Growth Rate | Slow |
| Growth Habit | Mounding |
| Flower Attributes | Fragrant, Showy Flowers |
| Landscape Use | Border, Ground Cover |
| Design Ideas | Use this plant as a groundcover or along the front edge of a shrub border for a field of bright green foliage. With the casual beauty of an old-fashioned flowering shrub, it is a fine alternative to weed-vulnerable, herbaceous groundcovers. Untroubled by poor soils, it is resilient and requires little or no maintenance. |
| Flower Color | White |
| Foliage Color | Green |
| Foliage Fall Color | Burgundy |
| Companion Plants | Weigela (Weigela); Dogwood (Cornus); Coral Bells (Heuchera); Speedwell (Veronica); Delphinium (Delphinium) |
| Care Instructions | Very adaptable to most soils; thrives in humusy, moist, well-drained, loamy soil. Best flowering in full sun. Water deeply, regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer in spring. Prune to shape, immediately after flowering. |
