The inflorescences comprise panicles, 15–20 cm long, of pure white flowers subtended by leafy bracts. The flowers appear in summer and persist until the first frosts.

Marbled White is cultivated in the UK, where it is included in the NCCPG National Collection held by Longstock Park Nursery near Stockbridge in Hampshire.
