Description

This shrub is deciduous in freezing areas but may act as a perennial in warmer areas, where it may grow to 5' tall and wide in a rounded form. Compound green leaves are 2"-5" long. Yellowish white balls of flowers bloom in late spring to late summer. This shrub has low watering requirements; irrigate every 2-3 weeks after it's established, especially during the summer. It can be a weak allergen for some sensitive people.

Water Saving Tip:

As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.

Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
