Deutzia x 'Yuki Cherry Blossom®'
Deutzia Yuki Cherry Blossom®
The Deutzia Yuki Cherry Blossom® does it all! This Deutzia displays a shower of elegant, pink bell-like flowers that create a carpet of color. Great for mass plantings because of its neat, mounded habit and burgundy-purple fall color. This tough, adaptable plant makes an excellent groundcover, especially on a sunny slope. Attracts hummingbirds and resists deer.
Deutzia and hydrangeas are botanically related (i.e., by the number and arrangement of their flower parts) - they're basically cousins!
