What it's good for, and what it isn't

Hybrid deutzia covers its arching branches with masses of pink, star-shaped flowers in late spring and early summer; it is mostly sold as 'Mont Rose', 'Strawberry Fields' and 'Pink Pom-Pom', and some of these are lightly scented. It is an undemanding, quick-growing shrub that copes with most garden soils and flowers best in sun, though it appreciates watering in long dry spells. It flowers on the previous year's wood, so always prune it straight after flowering, otherwise you cut off next year's display.

Watch out for

No serious pests or diseases; aphids and leaf spots may appear occasionally. The stems are short-lived, so old and dead branches need cutting out every year or the shrub becomes bare and untidy. It offers little outside its flowering season and has no autumn colour.
