Clethra alnifolia 'Summer Sparkler' -

Clethera alnifolia 'Summer Sparkler' -

It doesn't take a genius to see that this Summersweet gets its name from the foot-long strands of densely packed fragrant flowers that twist off in all directions just like the sparks from a 4th of July sparkler. Compact, Summer Sparkler™ is more prolific in blooming than the species with flower racemes twice as long. An outstanding shady garden choice for summer bloom and pollinator attraction.
