Exochorda x macrantha 'The Bride'

Pealbush

These deciduous shrubs are grown for their abundant, showy white flowers that open in April from pearl-like buds. Use in mixed shrub plantings or in groups -- alone they look somewhat thin and leggy. Exochorda racemosa is the most commonly planted, but Exochorda giraldii is more dramatic, with more flowers and pretty, pinkish-green young growth. Thin out weak and crowded branches after bloom. Watch for chlorosis. Exochorda racemosa is resistant to oak root fungus.

Compact hybrid with arched, hanging branches and lots of big white flowers.
