FEATURED POLLINATOR PLANT: Virginia sweetspire 'Little Henry', Itea virginica
​

'Little Henry' is a compact spreading version of this native shrub which features extremely long and narrow panicles of fragrant white flowers in early summer. Flowers open from base to tip so that the plant appears to bloom for a long time. The narrow leaves turn an outstanding burgundy in the fall. Attracts birds and butterflies.
