Growing 2 to 3 feet tall and 3 to 4 foot wide, Dwarf Fothergilla is ideal for use as a specimen in smaller garden spaces or in groupings or as a natural low hedge in landscape, flowering shrub and woodland borders. Especially nice near the garden pond or other bodies of water and a fine addition to North American native plant gardens, pollinator gardens, butterfly gardens and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing:  3 feet apart for solid borders;  6 feet apart for space between plants

Dwarf Fothergilla is very easy to grow and virtually maintenance free when planted right and in the right spot. It prefers a moist but well-drained acidic soil of average to high fertility and sun or part shade. In hot and dry climates it will appreciate some shade or filtered sun during the hottest part of the afternoon.
