Deutzias come from eastern Asia. They are low-maintenance shrubs ideal for every garden size and very gardener as they are so easy to grow.
Description of the plant:
Strawberry Fields is a hybrid variety of deutzia with deep rose-pink, star-shaped, fragrant flowers. Bearing the same name as one of the old song by the Beatles it really looks like green fields with strawberries as it grows as a compact, low shrub with dense foliage and profusion of almost strawberry-red flowers in June. Lance-shaped leaves are mid green with bluish shade. Trimming is not needed but if you wish to trim or rejuvenate older plants do so immediately after flowering. Deutzia flowers on previous year’s wood so it needs to make new branches with flowers buds before winter.
Deutzias are quite soil adaptable. They like full sun but will grow in part shade, too. Fully hardy to about -30°C (USDA zone 5).
