Philadelphus 'Innocence'
Philadelphus ‘Innocence’, also known as variegated mock orange ‘Innocence’, is a deciduous ornamental shrub with a rounded, flexible habit, prized for its cream-variegated green foliage and intensely fragrant blooms. In spring, its leaves, irregularly edged with creamy white, brighten up flowerbeds, adding texture and contrast even before flowering. In early summer, it is covered in pure white single flowers with a sweet fragrance reminiscent of orange blossom, very attractive to pollinators. Philadelphus ‘Innocence’ prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil rich in organic matter to ensure abundant flowering. Ideal for informal hedges, borders, or near living areas, it combines decorative foliage and remarkable fragrance for a bright and inviting northern garden.
