Japanese Mock Orange is a shrub that gets its name from its clusters of small white flowers which have a sweet fragrance similar to orange blossoms. Mock orange is a plant for all seasons. The evergreen foliage has a smooth, leathery texture and forms in whorls around the stems. Perfect for plating near patios or porches where the gorgeous foliage, fragrant flowers and frequent butterfly visitors can be experienced up close.
