This makes a wonderful dwarf feature shrub for the front of a sunny garden bed or in a pot or rockery situation. Trim back behind the spent flower heads at the end of spring. Good in sun or part shade, and does best in well drained soil types. Feed with a good low phosphorus plant food in spring.

At first glance it reminder me of the onions flowers we have here, but I see it is a shrub. It would be a lovely small shrub.
ReplyDeleteStunning structure for a shrub! The one that's about to bloom on bottom right is so cute. ^.^
ReplyDeleteHi Nick. This reminds me of the northern version of a viburnum flower. The blooms are beautiful and you have captured them perfectly!
