Discover Philadelphus lewisii, a beautifully lush deciduous shrub, natively widespread across western North America. From the captivating Sierra Nevada to idyllic regions of Idaho and British Columbia, this diverse spectacle grows amongst various other species. Also known as Lewis' Mock Orange, the dwarf shrub delivers stunning clusters of long stems adorned with delicate white petals and vibrant yellow stamens - a delightful sight during its peak flowering period. The enchanting flowers ooze a sweet, orange blossom scent with a hint of pineapple. A resilient plant, thriving in most soils, including thin soils over chalk and heavy clay, it enjoys partial shade to full sun exposure. The Mock Orange is hardy, growing 6-11 ft tall, and tolerates difficult conditions down to 5°F. It develops red stems, fading to gray with age. Its leaves exhibit a pleasing light green shade and rough texture. Its eco-friendly properties include usage as an effective gentle cleaner, thanks to its saponin-rich leaves and bark. Traditional medicinal uses include treating skin conditions and sore joints. Recognized as Idaho's state flower, this versatile, aromatic plant maintains an ornamental presence in your garden.
