Beauty Bush - Pink Cloud - DetailsBeauty Bush - Pink Cloud - Sale Price: $13.95
Beauty Bush - Pink Cloud, Kolkwitzia amabilis 'Pink Cloud', produces white-pink flowers that are carried into May on arching stems, and this colorful display has quite an effect. The bell-shaped pink flowers have yellow throats that appear in clusters in a profuse mid-spring bloom. The rest of the year, it remains a mound of foliage, doing its job of screening the view of the neighbors! A member of the honeysuckle family, it is a suckering, deciduous shrub that typically grows 6' to 10’ tall with an arching, vase-shaped habit. Pink Cloud's flowers are followed by capsule-like fruits that usually persist on the plants. Broad-ovate dark green leaves turn an undistinguished yellow in fall. Easily grown in average, medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. Best flowering is in full sun. Diminished flowering, often accompanied with a more arching-spreading habit, occurs in part shade. Use Beauty Bush in your landscape design as a screen, as a specimen or at the corner of a house in groups of three.
