Clethra alnifolia 'Sixteen Candles'

3 Gallon The Sixteen Candles Summersweet is a compact deciduous bush with glossy green leaves, that grows around 3 feet tall and wide. In summer and into fall it carries many 6-inch upright flower spikes, smothered in pure-white blossoms. Blooming for weeks, it really brightens the garden in those late-summer months, so plant it in your beds, along a path, by a stream or pond, or beneath trees. The clusters of seed pods are an interesting winter feature, and the fall leaves are glowing yellow. Height: 2 - 4' Spread: 2 - 4' Spacing: 3 - 4' Exposure: Part Sun (4 to 6 Hours) or Full Sun (6+ Hours) Blooms: Summer through Fall
