What is a deutzia shrub?

Deutzia gracilis is a compact, upright shrub that grows to 3 feet tall and wide. It bears clusters of white flowers in spring.

How do you look after deutzia?

Deutzia prefers locations with high exposure to sunlight. It likes rich and well drained soil, that is where it flowers best. Adding soil conditioner when planting enhances settling in and root development. Water well during the first 2 years after planting.

Is deutzia an evergreen?

Most Deutzia are deciduous, but a few subtropical species are evergreen. The flowers are white in most species, but a few are pink or reddish. Deutzia species bloom in spring. They are used as garden shrubs, and the smaller varieties can be grown as groundcovers or in containers.

Does deutzia grow in shade?

Deutzia prefer neutral to alkaline soil. They will tollerate light shade but produce the best flowers in full sun. The species are generally tall summer flowering shrubs, ideal for the middle or back of the shrubbery.

When should deutzia be pruned?

Prune these spring flowering shrubs soon after they have bloomed. Top prune the plant to improve the shape and reduce its size, but be careful not to remove more than 30% of the top growth. Some summer pruning can also be done on particularly vigorous plants, but not after mid-July.

How big do deutzia bushes get?

These plants generally grow 2 to 4 feet (0.6 to 1.2) meters) tall and wide. A two-foot-tall cultivar known as “Nikko” is available. Slender deutzia can tip root (develop roots where cascading branches touch the soil), which means the plant will spread if you let it.

How do you transplant deutzia?

Plant the cuttings in a cutting soil mix which contains a mixture of river sand. Ensure the soil mix remains moist. Prepare the cuttings for the winter season by keeping them in a space at a temperature of 40° degrees Fahrenheit (4° C). In spring, transplant these cuttings into large nursery pots.

How do you propagate deutzia?

Trim off the two lowest leaves, creating a small wound at each leaf site where roots can grow. Place the cutting on its side on your work surface and shave away two or three tiny strips of bark about 1/4- to 1/2-inch long from the end of the cutting to create additional wounds that can produce roots.

How do you prune a deutzia Nikko?

Pruning: Deutzia blooms on the previous year's growth (known as "old wood"). If you prune your plant before it has bloomed in the spring, you may be removing flower buds. In late winter or early spring, cut away dead stems or stems that were broken over the winter.
