Exochorda X Macrantha 'The Bride' (Pearlbush) Size/Shape

Exochorda x macrantha 'The Bride' (Pearlbush) Exochorda x macrantha 'The Bride' is a deciduous shrub of hybrid origin introduced around 1900. It is a hybrid of Exochorda korolkowii and Exochorda racemosa. It carries pearl-like racemes and it has green leaves that turn yellow in autumn. It also carries star-shaped brown fruits that are not ornamentally significant. This hybrid is now very common in landscape uses and can be used for borders, containers and hedging, in addition to being pollution tolerant.

. ARNOLDIA E I A publication of THE ARNOLD ARBORETUM OF HARVARD UNIVERSITY Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts 02130 VOLUME 28 APRIL 12, 1968 NUMBER 1 COUNTRY COUSINS the horticultural world, a continuous effort ~s bemg made to select the I"best" N trees and shrubs for ornamental use. In the process, many other plants are relegated to secondary status and then are often ignored by the hor- ticultural public. Later on, a few may show traits that were not obvious at first - and so bid for reconsideration. In other cases, one species has become en- trenched in horticultural usage-and for this reason alone continues to over- shadow later introductions. An occasional looking back through the lists of little-used plants can be expected to turn up a few that have been overshadowed by better-known relatives, but that have character of their own-and potential usefulness. Chionanthus retusus Chinese Fringetree Our native (southeastern U. S. ) fringetree (Chionanthus virginicus) is fairly well known, even though not widely used as a landscape plant in our area. Its oriental relative, Chionanthus retnsus, is even less used, probably because its flowers and inflorescences are smaller. But the overall effect of C. retusus in bloom is almost as spectacular as that of C. virginicus (Plate I). In addition, it can be grown with minimal pruning, while C. virginicus requires heavy pruning every few years to maintain good form. The largest specimen of C. retusus m the Arnold Arboretum is about 20 feet tall and resembles a miniature American elm in outline. This and its interesting furrowed bark keep this tree interesting during the winter months (Plates I and II).

The Role of Chinese Plants in Hungarian Landscape Architecture
The Role of Chinese Plants in Hungarian Landscape Architecture Laszlo Gerzson Corvinus University of Budapest, Department of Garden and Open Space Design [email protected] Abstract: Most outdoor plants in Hungarian horticulture are exotas mainly from Middle and East Asia and North America. The flora of China is diversified and has many species because the last glacial period did not reach China. The richness of the Chinese flora was known for Europeans by the missionaries and medics first in19th cectury. Later some bigger nurseries sent expeditions in China to collect new plants. Nowadays the Hungarian landscape architecture is impossible without Chinese plants. Keywords: China, Landscape architecture, Glacial period, Discovery. Introduction Most outdoor plants (trees, shrubs, annuals and perennials) in Hungarian horticulture are exotas, which feel good in our climate. In outdoor planting it is very important that plants feel good in their new environment or at least that they can tolerate it, which will depend on their original environment, i.e. the circumstances under which they were chosen. That is why many plants from Middle and East Asia and North America have an important part to play in the structure of Hungarian and European ornamentals. Speciality of the Chinese Flora The flora of China is diversified and has many species. The reason for this is that the lay of the country’s land varies. There are high mountains, ones over 4.000 meters, with alpine vegetation; highlands with forests; and lowlands lying near sea level. Especially in China, these different places are close to each other, so many kinds of plants occupy a relatively small area.
