Deutzia scabra
Ordered as a bush, received a thin stem that made me doubt its ability to grow. However, it has endured successive frosts alternating with numerous winter rains. Waiting for it to establish itself and for the beautiful white flowering when the bush has grown fuller.

The Deutzia scabra or Rough Deutzia is a large bush, appreciated for its fast growth, ease of cultivation, and superb spring flowering. It is the hardiest species of Deutzia. From June to July, its upright then gracefully arching branches bear cascades of 15 cm (5.9 in) long panicles, with pure white fringed pompom-like flowers with pinkish reflections, slightly scented with honey! Its significant growth and graceful architecture make it an exceptional specimen as a standalone plant or in a flowering hedge in a medium to large garden. It is a deciduous bush that thrives in both full sun and partial shade and tolerates even chalky soils, as long as they are deep, rich, and well-drained.
Â
The Deutzia scabra is native to China and Japan, but also found in Pakistan. This large bush has an upright habit in its early years, which becomes more spreading with age. Its flexible branches are slightly arched at their tips. Its bark, cinnamon-coloured, peels off when mature. With fast growth, it reaches an average height of 3m (9 ft 10 in) and a spread of 2m. In June and July, the Deutzia scabra offers slightly honey-scented flowering, with cascading and double white star-shaped flowers in panicles. When they first open, the petals' undersides can be striped with pink, giving the flower an overall pink hue. As they fully open, the pure white interior of the petals becomes visible, giving the flowers their white appearance. Its deciduous leaves are a fairly dark matte green, downy, and rough. It is this roughness that earned the species its name "scabra," which means rough in Latin. The leaves, elongated oval to lanceolate in shape, measure 4 to 7 cm (1.6 - 2.8 in) in length and have serrated margins.
Â
The Deutzia scabra may be the hardiest of all Deutzias, but it dislikes drought and shallow soils. To ensure its beautiful flowers thrive, protecting this bush from the burning sun and strong winds is essential. This stunning plant can stand alone in a small garden or be part of a mixed hedge with other flowering bushes that bloom at different times, such as shrub roses, butterfly bushes, lilacs, mock oranges, spireas, flowering crabapple trees, or hawthorns. It also pairs well with evergreen foliage plants like conifers, Elaeagnus ebbingei, Photinia, and Mexican orange trees.

Botanical data
Deutzia scabra prefers deep, moist, well-drained and humus-rich soils. It grows best in full sun or partial shade but should be sheltered from strong winds to protect its flowers. If the soil is accommodating and tolerates the presence of limestone, the plant will thrive. Pruning the plant after flowering is recommended to remove all dead stems and floral branches and keep it neat.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
