Description

Yuki Kabuki deutzia is another of Dr. Tom Ranney's innovations, boasting deep pink flowers and a more mounded, bushier habit than the Yuki Cherry Blossom deutzia. If it is a substitute for or improvement on anything, it would be 'Magician' deutzia, as its useful habit opens up new opportunities for landscape and garden design. Handsome glossy foliage takes on yellow, red, and purple tones in autumn for a much longer and more interesting display.
