In the Garden Now: Deutzia 'Magician'

Story and photo by Victoria Gilleland

This lovely shrub has been growing under a large evergreen tree on a slope at the back of our property in heavy shade for at least eight years.

This doesn’t sound like a particularly happy place for a shrub to set down roots, but Deutzia ‘Magician’ has done very well.

Clusters of perfect white flowers appear reliably in early summer. ‘Magician’ has proven to be a drought tolerant easy to grow shrub. 

Give this beauty a chance in your garden.
