Deutzias are graceful, low-maintenance flowering shrubs in the hydrangea family (Hydrangeaceae). Named for Dutch botanist Johann van der Deutz, they offer arching branches cloaked in white or pink blossoms each spring. Most are deciduous, though some are evergreen in mild climates. Their vertical habit suits small gardens, and their fragrance attracts pollinators. Prune immediately after flowering to shape and encourage next year's blooms.
