Description
Scentlandia itea plant is much beloved for its sweetly scented summer blooms. A smaller variety that works with any size landscape and outstanding fall color so that the plant stays interesting beyond its bloom time. The flowers aren’t just longer, larger and more fragrant than other varieties – they’re also more cold tolerant, assuring a good display even in USDA zone 5 where flower buds are frequently damaged. Itea is 1 of the most shade tolerant flowering shrubs and thrives even in wet soils, making it an excellent problem solver.
