This compact deciduous shrub forms a dense, mounding habit, reaching a mature height of 2-3 feet and a similar spread. Hardy in USDA zones 3-7, it thrives in cool to moderate temperatures and offers excellent deer resistance. The foliage features rich green leaves that hold their color throughout the season, while the plant bursts into bloom with abundant white flowers from late spring through fall, providing extended seasonal interest. It prefers well-drained soils and adapts well to a variety of soil types, including sandy or clay soils, as long as drainage is adequate. While it does not feature notable fall color changes, its extended flower show more than compensates. Drought-tolerant once established, this shrub is ideal for borders, rock gardens, or as a low-maintenance groundcover. Its compact, rounded shape requires minimal pruning, making it an excellent choice for novice and experienced gardeners alike.
