Fizzy Mizzy Sweetspire 1 Live Plant – Itea virginica ‘SMNIVMM’ – 3 Gallon Pot

Fizzy Mizzy® Sweetspire (Itea virginica ‘SMNIVMM’) is a compact deciduous flowering shrub valued for its upright clusters of fragrant white flowers and attractive green foliage. Unlike the more arching flower clusters of many traditional sweetspire selections, Fizzy Mizzy® produces distinctive upright flower spikes that create a lively display in late spring to early summer.

This ornamental shrub develops a dense, rounded, compact growth habit that works well in mixed borders, foundation plantings, woodland gardens, and native-inspired landscapes. Its flowers attract pollinators, while the foliage may develop red, orange, or burgundy tones during autumn. As a selection of Itea virginica, it belongs to a species native to eastern North America.

This listing includes one live Fizzy Mizzy® Sweetspire in a 3 gallon nursery pot. The plant generally grows well in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. It is adaptable to a range of garden conditions and can tolerate periodically wet soil once established.
