Itea Virginica Little Henry Pw 2 Gal

In spring this native shrub produces long, drooping clusters, of tiny fragrant white flowers that cascade down "Little Henry's' mounding form. Luscious bright green foliage turns deep red and orange in fall and remains till winter. With great erosion control and boggy soil tolerance, this majestic shrub does spectacularly along streambanks or wetter slopes. Don't forget to consider 'Little Henry' for your rain garden as it does great in spots that hold water both during and a few hours post rain events.
