{Our Pearl Bush - Exochorda racemosa}

  • However frail, our Pearlbush is showing some flowers again. We had such damage after the hot and dry summer of 2011, that we are glad some shrubs did even survive. 
  • Our Pearl Bush Exochorda racemosa is one of them. In a previous post by me from March 2011, you can see lovely photos with more blossoms, together with real pearls. Just click on the link below this post. The above link goes to Woodlanders where it is still available for sale.

  • Photo taken on Wednesday, February 20. 
  • Look at the beautiful blue sky as a stark contrast with this lovely Pearl Bush blossom and buds. 
  • Those buds do resemble pearls! 

  • Another blossom almost completely opened up.
  • Leaves also start to come...

  • Love the special sunlight playing inside this perfect tip with buds...
  • Does any of you have a Pearl Bush?

    Liebe Mariette,
    leider habe ich keinen Pearl-Busk. Mein Gärtlein ist zu klein.
    Ich finde Deine Fotos und die Erläuterungen immer sehr schön.
    Das muss einmal gesagt werden.
    Einen schönen Sonntag wünscht Dir
    Irmi

    What a beautiful blossom and little pearl buds! I don't have such a beauty here. It must be a Southern lady, too delicate for this Northern climate. Enjoy your lovely pearls, Mariette - nature's jewels. xoxo
