Description
The Philadelphus coronarius 'Godzisz' is a variety of mock orange selected for its vigor and floribundity, rare in cultivation. It is a large deciduous bush that offers a divinely scented cream-white flowering in June, more generous than that of the classic Philadelphus coronarius. Its charm will operate in a large flowering hedge or in a shrub border, in all our regions.
The Philadelphus coronarius 'Godzisz' is a Polish horticultural variety almost unknown in Western Europe. Belonging to the hydrangea family, the Philadelphus coronarius, also known as mock orange or poet's jasmine, is a botanical species native to Southern Europe and Asia Minor. The 'Godzisz' cultivar is a vigorous deciduous bush that reaches a height of about 3m with a spread of 1.75m. It produces numerous clusters of single, cream-white flowers with 4 petals, 2.5cm in diameter, with yellow stamens, and highly fragrant, between late May and early July. In this 'Godzisz' variety, the flowers are more abundant than in the typical variety. The leaves are ovate, 5 to 8cm long, pointed, with small teeth along the edges. The foliage is a medium green colour. This deciduous foliage falls in autumn.
This robust and undemanding poet's jasmine, Godzisz, is suitable for both experienced and novice gardeners. It withstands both cold and dry summers. Plant it in a hedge with weigelas, butterfly bushes, lilacs of intermediate size, or large rose bushes for hedges, for example. Let an Italian leather flower clematis climb into its branches, giving it a wild and charming look.
In ancient Persia, the white and fragrant flowers of the Philadelphus coronarius were used to make fragrant crowns.

Planting and care
The Philadelphus coronarius 'Godzisz', very easy to grow, requiring very little maintenance and very accommodating, is an ideal bush for beginner gardeners. Ordinary soil, even limestone and dry in summer, will be accepted. However, it will prefer a fresh, well-drained and humus-bearing soil. Very hardy, it can withstand negative temperatures down to -20°C and more. Planting is done in early spring or autumn, in full sun or partial shade.
Flowering on the previous year's shoots, Philadelphus coronarius should be pruned after flowering, in July-August, by shortening the flowering branches by one third of their length. A more severe pruning can be done every 2 to 3 years, in order to keep it compact and very floriferous. Simply do not hesitate to cut the old wood and too long branches down to the base of the plant to encourage branching from the base. A resistant bush, it can however be subject to powdery mildew and black aphids.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
