Narrative

Deciduous shrub growing to 3 m tall and 2 m wide. Drooping pure white racemes of flowers appear in early spring just as the new leaves are emerging. This cultivar flowers about two weeks earlier than most red forms. Lobed pale green leaves are attractive all summer and emit a spicy fragrance when touched. Excellent as a specimen shrum in the home garden for for mass planting along highways, in parks and city landscapes. Particularly effective when mixed with red-flowering forms. No notable pest or disease problems observed in garden setting although subject to aphids in nursery greenhouse. Hardy to USDA Zone 6, Canadian Zone 6b-7a. Propagation by softwood or semi-hardwood nodal cuttings approximately 10 cm in length. Rooting hormone of 0.3 to 0.5 % IBA in talc. Roots in 4 to 6 weeks under mist. Avoid rooting as semihardwood after late summer because successful overwintering may be a problem. Can be rooted as 15 cm dormant leafless hardwood cuttings in late fall-early winter. Apply 0.8 % IBA to base of cuttings. Suitable for direct sticking. UBC, germplasm release notice, 1985.
