How do we use your location?
Knowing your location helps us recommend plants that will thrive in your climate, based on your Growing Zone.
Discovered at the Mt. Airy Arboretum in Ohio, ‘Mount Airy’ Fothergilla is a deciduous shrub native to the southeastern United States, known for its fragrant, white, bottlebrush-like flowers in spring and vibrant fall foliage in shades of yellow, orange, and red-purple. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-draining, moist, acidic soils. It is a perfect companion for other acid-loving plants like azaleas, rhododendrons, and blueberries.
This low maintenance, native shrub supports native pollinators like bees, butterflies and birds. 'Mount Airy' is ideal for hedges, foundation plantings, or mixed borders adding both beauty and habitat!
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge.
