Everyone is familiar with x van houttei since it has been a staple of the spring landscape for decades, but 'Renaissance' is better because it displays a much stronger resistance to diseases. You'll be hard pressed to find one single difference between the two plants except 'Renaissance' is much more carefree and much more able to deliver on the promise of being a great landscape plant! So, enjoy the same fountain form and incredible bloom that resembles a snowstorm only in late May and June, and use generously in the garden for its great looks when planted alone or in groups to form an elegant border planting.
