Legend of the Small®

Legend of the Small® Fothergilla is a compact deciduous shrub prized for its fragrant spring flowers, attractive foliage, and brilliant fall color. Growing approximately 2-3 feet tall and wide, it forms a dense, rounded mound that provides the multi-season interest of larger Fothergilla varieties in a much smaller package. In spring, fragrant white, bottlebrush-like flowers appear above the foliage, creating an attractive early-season display and drawing pollinators to the landscape. Throughout summer, its tidy green to blue-green foliage provides attractive texture before developing brilliant shades of yellow, orange, red, and burgundy in fall. Its compact size makes Legend of the Small an excellent choice for foundation plantings, smaller gardens, mixed borders, low mass plantings, or along walkways where a full-size Fothergilla would become too large.

Fertilizing:Fothergilla generally requires little fertilizer. If needed, apply a light application of balanced slow-release fertilizer suitable for acid-loving plants in early spring. Adding compost or organic matter around the root zone can also help maintain healthy growth. Pruning:Very little pruning is required. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches as needed. If shaping is necessary, prune shortly after flowering to avoid removing developing flower buds for the following season.
