Deutzia scarba (Codsall pink)
Has anyone had any experience in growing the fuzzy deutzia? I've checked
sources in a search on-line, but most say moist, high humus soil, which I definitely don't have. How tolerant are they of less than ideal conditions and will they grow and bloom in such an environment? I have three plants started from cuttings from a parent plant which was located in a rather shaded area on the east side of the house where it received regular watering. I first saw a single flowered variety blooming in Branson, MO, in Silver Dollar City, in much the same type of environment. What happens if it gets planted in a full-sun area? I would appreciate it if anyone would share his/her experience with this shrub. And yes, Mad, one of them is yours if they continue to thrive! G John |

G John mine would be tucked into my dry woods, and supplimented with watering until established, would that do? not deep shade, but high shade unless otherwise told to plant elsewhere. I am thinking of planting on the north side of the house that gets good Eastern sun, strong southern and strong Western lights. would that be enough? madgardener |
