Mock Orange ‘Minnesota Snowflake’ Live Plant – 1 Gallon Pot – Philadelphus × virginalis

Mock Orange ‘Minnesota Snowflake’ (Philadelphus × virginalis) is a deciduous flowering shrub valued for its double white flowers and strong, sweet fragrance. This ornamental shrub provides seasonal color and fragrance and can be used for garden borders, hedges, or focal plantings.

This listing includes 1 live plant in a gallon pot, approximately 8–18 inches tall at time of shipping. The plant has green foliage and produces fragrant white blooms, typically in late spring to early summer. It prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil.

During winter, plants may be shipped completely dormant and leafless. Bare branches or a dry-looking appearance during dormancy are normal and do not necessarily indicate that the plant is dead. Natural variation in size, branching, foliage density, flower development, and overall appearance should be expected.
