Nursery contributed plant descriptions

We saw this lovely pea shrub at Chanticleer, Wayne, PA. Several plants were in the parking lot and made a stunning show in September. The arching stems literally cascade with the amount of white flowers. We don’t get many flowers, but the deep green lush foliage is worth growing by its self.
