Description
Pure white spring flowers cover the compact, rounded branches of Deutzia NCDX1, creating a low flowering mound for border fronts, foundations, or patio containers.
The deciduous foliage stays green through summer and turns red to burgundy-purple in fall. A mature plant reaches about 1 to 2 feet tall and wide, so it fits small spaces and low group plantings.
Grow it in full sun or partial shade in moist, well-drained soil. Afternoon shade is useful in hot summers, and any shaping should be done immediately after flowering.
