Deutzia x magnifica at Digging Dog
These profuse and long blooming deciduous shrubs are Asian natives named after Johann van der Deutz, a lawyer, town councilor and amateur botanist from Amsterdam. Easy to cultivate in any well drained soil, Deutzias are some of the most beautiful early summer flowering shrubs. Deutzia x magnifica
As the name implies, this is a magnificent hybrid that comes to us via the famous Lemoine Nursery in France, where many Deutzia and the closely related Philadelphus were hybridized between 1894 and 1927. It is a vigorous, upright shrub with a dense branching habit. Its exfoliating bark and pure white double flowers, carried in tightly clustered sprays along the branches, create much interest, especially in a shrubby or mixed border with a dark background.
In our garden, we contrast the white flowers with purple-leafed Cotinus ‘Grace’ and summer blooming Hydrangea ‘Blue Billow’.
Blooms June–July. Size: 6'–8' high x 6' wide; hardy to zone 6. Deutzia x magnifica (S-0196) Each $7.00
