With possibly the best coloured foliage of all Mock Oranges, Philadelphus coronarius 'Aureus' adds additional light to your garden in the form of its golden yellow/green leaves. This hardy, deciduous shrub holds onto this foliage until the last possible moment to bring much needed brightness to the autumn garden. In addition to the remarkable colouring, this desirable plant also has large numbers of creamy white blooms which carry a strong "orange" fragrance with them, increasing the pleasure derived from it in your garden. Requiring very little aftercare, Philadelphus plants are very rewarding in either a shrub border or as stand-alone plants. Height: 250cm (98"). Spread: 150cm (59").
