The weight of its numerous flowers gives it a distinctly weeping habit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flowers are small, of white or pink color, grouped in small bunches all along the branches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_grow_a_deutzia_shrub\"><\/span>How to grow a deutzia shrub<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The culture of the deutzia presents few difficulties, but you will have to protect it from strong winds and to avoid planting it in too light, sandy or very dry ground. Give it as much light as possible for a good bloom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to water well during the year of planting, especially in summer. Leave the shrub unpruned for 3 years, while it fills out. Then, prune every year after flowering, above the new branches by removing a third of the length of the branches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few shovelfuls of manure or compost at the foot, brought in winter, will contribute to satisfy its nutritional needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not known to have any parasites or diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Avoid pink varieties in the shade: they are the only ones whose blooming really suffers from the lack of light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_grow_deutzia_in_a_pot\"><\/span>How to grow deutzia in a pot<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Give the deutzia some comfort by repotting it in a pot of at least 30 cm in diameter. A universal potting soil is sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After flowering, prune back the old branches, recognizable by their tattered bark, to encourage new growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_plant_a_deutzia_shrub\"><\/span>Where to plant a deutzia shrub<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For those with limited garden space, deutzia shrubs can be planted in pots and placed on patios, decks, or balconies to provide a splash of color and texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For larger gardens, deutzia shrubs can be planted in flowerbeds to create a stunning display of blooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the garden, plant groups of 3 plants to create a volume, in association with lilacs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Our_selection\"><\/span>Our selection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/theyardable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deutzia-flowers-2-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"deutzia plant with white flowers\" class=\"wp-image-2131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theyardable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deutzia-flowers-2-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/theyardable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deutzia-flowers-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theyardable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deutzia-flowers-2-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/theyardable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deutzia-flowers-2-1536x865.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/theyardable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/deutzia-flowers-2.jpg 1640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The colors are not very varied, so the choice will be made essentially on the period of bloom.
