Notes
'Pearls Of Perfume' mock orange (Philadelphus 'Pearls Of Perfume') is a shrub for borders, hedges, and rain gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Fragrant double flowers open in late spring and repeat into summer, and bees visit them. Deer tend to browse other plants first. Prune only if desired after flowering.
Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Spicebush, and Virginia spiderwort.
