Slender, spikes of fragrant, white flowers rise above deep green, glossy, heart shaped leaves. The effect of these gently nodding blooms is particularly breathtaking when planted en masse. Great as a ground cover or for water gardens, bog gardens and along ponds and streams. This vigorous bloomer has no major disease or pest issues and is tolerant of shade, wet soil and deer browse.
