Blue Shadow Fothergilla is a slow-growing deciduous shrub with an upright mounding habit.  The thick foliage foliage emerges green and quickly earns an intense dusky blue overtone before turning fiery orange and red in fall. Fragrant white bottlebrush-like spikes bloom through spring before the foliage emerges.  Blooms best in rich, moist well-drained acidic soils. 

Fothergilla is a native pollinator that provides nectar for several species of butterflies and bees.
