Illuminati Spice® Mockorange — Philadelphus coronarius

Illuminati Spice® Mockorange (Philadelphus coronarius 'SMNPSDW') is a refined, compact flowering shrub that delivers one of the most intoxicating floral fragrances in the garden — a rich, sweet, orange-blossom scent that perfumes the entire landscape from late spring into summer. The elegantly arched, upright branches form a beautifully rounded, well-proportioned mound clothed in rich dark green foliage. In late spring, the shrub is smothered in profuse clusters of pure white, fully double flowers — each bloom exceptionally fragrant and long-lasting. A drought-tolerant and easy-care shrub that thrives in full to part sun with rich, moist, well-drained soils. Part of the innovative Illuminati® series, known for its compact, refined habits without sacrificing bloom quality. Hardy to Zone 4.
