Sweetly scented white flowers cover Philadelphus Lemoinei in early summer, brightening the light green foliage with open blooms and yellow stamens.
The compact, bushy shrub develops upright stems with gently arching side branches. Its moderate size suits flowering borders, courtyard gardens, informal hedges, and large patio containers.
Grow it in full sun or partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. It accepts acid, neutral, or alkaline conditions and a broad range of soil types. Prune after flowering, work compost into the soil, and mulch in spring.
