Deutzia × hybrida 'Mont Rose'
deutzia
Dense clusters of star shaped, rose pink flowers and slender, dark green leaves. This elegant, summer flowering shrub is an excellent specimen plant for smaller gardens. Although best in full sun Deutzia × hybrida 'Mont Rose' can tolerate light shade and alkaline soil.
How to care for Deutzia × hybrida Mont Rose:
Plant in well-drained, moisture-retentive soil in sun or light shade and water newly planted shrubs regularly until established.
Tip-prune young plants in spring by pinching out soft shoot tips or cutting back longer growth by a third to encourage a bushy shape. After flowering, cut back spent flowered stems to a strong, healthy bud. Remove about a quarter of the oldest stems at the base to promote new growth and keep the shrub compact. Apply a balanced fertiliser in spring to support good flowering and healthy foliage.
