| Description | These deciduous shrubs have graceful arching branches, that are covered in fragrant white blooms from late Spring to early Summer. They flower at about the same time (if not slightly earlier) than Spring flowering Magnolias), but their flowers are not as frost sensitive, so this plant is a great choice if you live in a frost prone area. Fully hardy. |
