This shrub it noted for its spectacular spring blossoms. It is a vase shaped, deciduous shrub with gracefully arching, almost pendulous branches. In mid to late spring, abundant clusters of tiny white flowers line the arching leafy stems producing a stunning display every spring. The foliage is small, with diamond shaped leaves with a distinctive blue-green color and may turn purplish in fall. This shrub similar to others of its kind is easy to care for and is perfect for foundation plantings and hedges.
