Itea virginica Fizzy Mizzy
A pretty native shrub which features long, narrow panicles of white flowers in early summer, spreads to form colonies, excellent blend of fall colors; not commonly found in gardens but definitely worthy, excellent for naturalizing

Virginia Sweetspire will grow to be about 4 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 5 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 40 years or more. This shrub performs well in both full sun and full shade. It is an amazingly adaptable plant, tolerating both dry conditions and even some standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This species is native to parts of North America.
