Philadelphus lewisii, Western Mock Orange

This highly perfumed beauty covers itself in 2-inch white flowers in mid-spring. A Western native, little water is required, growing to about 6 feet tall by 4 – 5 feet wide. It lights up a shady corner of the garden and will take sun too! Bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and your nose take turns at the flowers. Minimum temperature: -30° F
