Landscape Qualities
Chardonnay Pearls Deutzia is a multi-stemmed deciduous shrub with a more or less rounded form. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other landscape plants with less refined foliage.
Ornamental Qualities
Chardonnay Pearls Deutzia is draped in stunning racemes of lightly-scented white trumpet-shaped flowers along the branches from mid to late spring. It has attractive chartreuse deciduous foliage which emerges gold in spring. The serrated pointy leaves are highly ornamental but do not develop any appreciable fall color.
Planting and Growing
Chardonnay Pearls Deutzia will grow to be about 3 feet tall at maturity | with a spread of 24 inches. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front. It grows at a slow rate | and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 20 years.
This shrub should only be grown in full sunlight. It is very adaptable to both dry and moist locations | and should do just fine under typical garden conditions. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is highly tolerant of urban pollution and will even thrive in inner city environments. This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America.
