ILLUMINATI SPICE® Mock Orange

If you haven’t had the pleasure of growing a mock orange before, now’s the time! And if you have grown or seen a mock orange before and thought they were way too big and unruly to enjoy in your yard, well, it’s time to rethink that. Illuminati Spice mock orange (Philadelphus coronarius) has been trialed and tested to ensure bigger, more abundant flowers, better foliage that holds up handsomely all season, and a sturdy, useful, and tame 4’x4′ (1.2mx1.2m) habit. In late spring or early summer (depending on your region), the shrub explodes with doubled white blooms that do indeed smell just like orange blossoms. But don’t be fooled – this durable beauty is hardy down to USDA zone 4 and heat tolerant through USDA zone 7. This native species lends itself well to being used as a low hedge, specimen, or incorporated into flower gardens.Why grow Illuminati Spice mock orange?Fragrant white double flowersHandsome foliage looks great all seasonHalf the size of conventional mock oranges
