Deutzia - Deutzia
There are 50 species of Deutzias, most of them indigenous to eastern Asia. At the end of the 19th century and beginning
of the 20th, they were introduced to Europe. The French botanist Lemoine began cultivating the eccentrically growing
wild varieties and produced trouble-free, decorative plants with large quantities of flowers. They flower later than the
other spring blossoms.
