Lack of water can lead to flower failure.Deutzia Scabra benefits from an annual prune that should be carried out immediately after flowering. They flower on the previous year’s growth, so early pruning gives time to regenerate new, healthy growth for next year’s flowers. Cut out all damaged, dead, or diseased branches and trim back to strong young shoots further down. How far you prune depends on the size you want to keep the shrub. Once a year remove 20% of old stems at ground level. This pruning regime invigorates Deutzia Scabra and keeps it flowering for years.
