Fast-growing deciduous shrub to 10-12′ tall and wide. This popular variety features attractive bright-green foliage accented with a profusion of fragrant eye-catching snowball-like pure-white sterile flowers that appear late-spring into summer. Adding further appeal to this spectacular variety is its lovely reddish-purple foliage display in the fall. Great as background to lower growing shrubs in mixed borders or as a foundation or accent plant and its brilliant pure-white flowers make a vivid display when contrasted with the lush green of a lawn. Prefers a regular watering schedule and a full to partial sun exposure.
