PLANT OF THE WEEK

EXOCHORDA ‘NIAGARA’

A lovely selection of the well-known pearl bush ‘Niagara’ is more compact than the better known ‘The Bride’ and hence suitable for smaller plots and pots.

Unlike ‘The Bride’s’ arching habit, ‘Niagara’ is more upright and shrubby.

April and May will see the branches smothered in pure white flowers.

Low-maintenance and fuss-free, grow in full sun or partial shade in moist, well-drained soil.
