(Sweetspire) Itea or Sweetspire are adaptable and versatile natives and FIZZY MIZZY® adds a new look to these shrubs. Unlike other Sweetspire whose blooms cascade downward, FIZZY MIZZY® has flower spikes that stand upright in an exceptional and long-blooming display. FIZZY MIZZY® is a compact grower, standing 2-3 feet tall and wide and has thick, dark green leaves that show off the fragrant white blooms appearing in late spring and will put on a fall show turning shades of burgundy and red. The blooms attract pollinators to the garden but deer find them unappealing! FIZZY MIZZY® Itea is one of the most shade tolerant of shrubs, though flowering and fall color will be best with at least some sun. It thrives in moist to wet soils, but is also tolerant of normal to dry conditions once established. This versatility makes FIZZY MIZZY® perfect for mass plantings, the woodland garden, as a specimen or in the mixed border. It is recommended that FIZZY MIZZY® be mulched in the colder parts of zones 5-9 where it is hardy, or planted in a protected site as there may be some winter dieback. It is a Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrub.
