Fothergilla gardenii displays tightly clustered, honey-scented, yellow and white flower spikes that resemble bottle-brushes that begin the show in April or May and persist for 2-3 weeks. Then, the lush green foliage appears and lasts until autumn, when vibrant yellows, oranges, purples, and reds conclude the season in a crescendo of scarlet.
