Title: A shrub in our garden !
Post by: Lyn and Malcolm on June 11, 2009, 08:50:16 PM

Deutzia 'Strawberry Fields'

Well it is still in it's pot at the moment, but we will be trying to find somewhere for it.

While looking on the net, i see Tom at Dalcross Castle has one on his Plant Review. But they have 10 acres to play in. ::)

Lovely, Malcolm. Deutzia is one of my favourites. We have two that are in full bloom at the moment. They have been flowering for quite a while, this was taken on May 28th.

Do they have a scent, I didn't try Srawberry Fields, can't imagine it would be of Strawberry.  ;D

If only we had a bigger garden, but then IGpro only allows 9,999 plants :o

A shrub  :o Be careful. How big and wide does it grow?

You are allowed 999,999 plants in the database and we can tweak the WPG to do the same  ;) Theres always room for another wee plant  ;D

Not sure if we have that particular one, but we do have some similar, Pink Pom pom and a double white one, plus a couple of pink and white flowered ones with no names any more.
