In the spring, the shrub produces clusters of small, bell-shaped white flowers. The flowers are very fragrant and cover the shrub in a blanket of white.

The slender deutzia prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is tolerant of drought once established. The slender deutzia can be propagated by cuttings or seeds.

To care for a slender deutzia, water it regularly, especially during the first year after planting. Fertilize the shrub in the spring and fall with a balanced fertilizer. Prune the shrub lightly in the late winter to remove any dead or diseased branches.

Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.

We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.
