A highly attractive, upright, deciduous shrub with an arching habit and mid-green foliage. 'Fragrant Falls' bears clusters of pure white, bell shaped, intensely fragrant flowers that appear in late spring and early summer. An ideal plant for a mixed shrub border or as an individual garden specimen.


• Garden care: Mulch around the roots in spring with a deep layer of well-rotted garden compost or manure. Prune in late summer, immediately after flowering, removing one in four of the older stems to ground level once established.
