Angela’s Garden Notes:
Once you experience the stimulating fragrance of Philadelphus, you’re spring days will forever be filled with the sweet memory.
An old-fashioned favorite, philadelphus is a deciduous shrub with a graceful, fountain-like habit and snow white blooms of the sweetest fragrance. Leave it to Plants Nouveau to offer a mock orange that gives an encore performance!
Snow White is a versatile shrub with a wide growing range, the pure white, deliciously fragrant flowers are but one great attribute of this underutilized spring-flowering shrub. Attractive foliage on gracefully arching branches guarantees Snow White easy placement in the garden with other flowering shrubs.
What charming impact: A wonderful new addition to the landscape border, with two seasons of flower and dark-green foliage that stands up to summer heat!
