Bought a mock orange yesterday. Philadelphus Virginialis. I picked up the wrong shrub as I already have a number of mock oranges. However....
The tag on the new mock orange says for size: 3 G.
Does anyone know what that means?? I am used to feet and inches. Thanx.
Probably the size of the nursery container in which it was sold: 3g= 3 gallons.

Wish they would have said how big the shrub was going to be. Will suppose it's going to be about 6' x 6' according to one source.
Philadelphus x virginalis 'snowbelle' is a semi-dwarf that only grows between 3' to 5'. I have a two year old plant in my yard that is about 2' and is loaded with double white flowers with an incredible fragrance. Yes, Mad, you'll get one if I can manage to start a cutting.
