Flowering Season

From Early Summer TO Late Autumn

At anytime of year, but more reliably in the warmest months, the stem tips give rise to a large tiered cluster of flowers that overall is reminiscent of the tall roof of a pagoda.

Planting

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

Position in full sun or light, dappled shade.Grow the elegant bridal veil shrub in a fertile, well-draining acidic or neutral soil in full sun to partial shade. As the stems are often tall and unbranching, it makes a terrific shrub for the rear of the mixed border nestled among broader shrubs. It may also be grown as a large container specimen or sprawling fan-shaped espalier.
