Garden Goods Direct | Legend of the Fall® Fothergilla

Legend of the Fall Fothergilla, or Alice Bottlebrush Shrubs, have been bred to have the best fall color of a plant that is already known for its spectacular fall displays. While Fothergilla Bottlebrush Shrubs all have showy fall foliage, Fothergilla Legend of the Fall surpasses all of them with glowing oranges, neon yellows, vibrant crimson reds, and decadent burgundies on its autumn leaves. This variety of Fothergilla also blooms with fragrant bottlebrush-shaped white flowers in the spring, which will bring a light aroma of honey to any garden. This native shrub looks best when left to grow without pruning, as its habit lends itself to create a popular naturalistic look, and it blooms on old wood. Create an informal border hedge or create dynamic layers of heights and colors under your trees. Fothergilla Legend of the Fall will show its most vibrant colors in full sun but is also very shade-tolerant.
