Mike Dirr writes that Paperbush is a "great teaser for the garden visitor who knows everything!"
This unusual, if not downright rare, plant is grown for its FRAGRANT, CREAMY WHITE flowers in March before leaves emerge.
Paperbush is a terrific addition to the woodland garden and plants slowly form colonies by spreading roots.
Leaves drop in winter, re-emerging the following spring after flowering.
See ours planted in dense shade below an Asian Greybeard at the bottom of the garden.
