A beautiful shrub known for its small white flower clusters appearing very early in the spring before the leaves. Related to forsythia but having even smaller flowers. Fragrant blossoms cover the plant in profusion, making it a mound of shimmering snowy white in the early spring garden. Exquisite! Give it sun to light shade in fertile, well drained soils.

White flowers are borne densely on yet-leafless branches of this attractive upright shrub (to 5') making a very early and very pretty picture mixed with forsythia and heath. Sun/Med

Place this one along a path where you'll enjoy the sweetly scented white flowers in late winter. Prune hard after flowering to promote more blooms. 5' x 5'
