THE BRIDE PEARL BUSH
Exochorda x macrantha 'The Bride' is commonly referred to as The Bride Pearl Bush. It is a tough, dense shrub with clusters of pearl-like buds that open to large, bridal-white flowers in April and May. It has a compact form, maturing to only 3-4 feet tall and wide. Oblong, pale green leaves turn yellow in fall.
The Bride Pearl Bush thrives in full sun in rich, acidic, loamy, well-drained soils. It is ideal for smaller gardens and shrub borders. It would like fantastic blooming alongside Forsythia in early spring.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in fertile, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH, selecting a site that receives full sun to partial shade for the best floral display. Although established plants exhibit moderate drought tolerance, ensure the root zone receives consistent moisture during the first few growing seasons to promote healthy development. Prune immediately after the spring flowering period to remove spent blossoms and shape the shrub, as this encourages strong growth for the following season's blooms. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to stabilize soil temperature and conserve water, taking care to keep the mulch away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
