Description
This remarkable Exochorda racemosa will bring a spectacle of snowy white flowers to the landscape. Exochorda ‘Snow Mountain’ is incredibly floriferous, boasting an abundance of white, decorative buds that resemble delicate pearls. In fact, it is one of the first shrubs to bloom in mid-February, when hardly anything else is in flower yet.
The early flowers are not limited to just one part of the plant; they flower all over the branch: from bottom to top. Exochorda ‘Snow Mountain’ has a well-branched growth habit and with its dense foliage and strong branches, this plant ensures a lush and full appearance. Exochorda ‘Snow Mountain’ is low maintenance and requires minimal care and attention once established. Ideal for shrub borders, mass planting, containers and hedges.
How to care for Exochorda ‘Snow Mountain’:
Exochorda ‘Snow Mountain’ will grow up to 180 – 200 cm high and 150 cm wide and prefers a spot in well-drained, moist soil in either partial shade or sun - though sun is preferred. No pruning needed thanks to its bushy, rounded habit, but mature plants can be pruned right after flowering to bring them back in shape! Exochorda ‘Snow Mountain’ is hardy to -30 ºC.
