Description
The deciduous 'Perle Rose' ceanothus is an exceptional bush with a long and abundant flowering in light panicles of carnation pink. Small in size and with an erect bushy habit, it is particularly well-suited for small gardens. This summer-flowering ceanothus only requires well-drained soil that is not too chalky or too acidic and it tolerates sun or partial shade. Hardier than evergreen ceanothus, it is less tolerant to drought and prefers soil which remains moist in the summer. It pairs wonderfully with white, blue, purple, and pink blooms.
Originating from North America and Mexico, Ceanothus pallidus, from which this bush is derived, belongs to the rhamnaceae family. The 'Perle Rose' variety measures 1.5m (5ft) in height and 1m (3.3ft) in width. It is hardy down to -10°C (14°F) but may require mulching in colder regions. The red-purple branches bear 5cm (2in) pale green, alternate, ovate, dentate leaves with very pronounced veins. From July to September, fluffy 6cm (2.4in) panicles of small tubular flowers of a carnation pink, turning carmine, bloom in the axils and tips of the branches.
Resistant and undemanding, it simply needs to be pruned severely after frost.
Ceanothus are generally used in slopes, borders, pots, and flower beds. Pair them with yarrows, gauras, or grasses for a floral display of muted colours. The small size of the 'Perle Rose' Ceanothus makes it suitable for planting in a container or flower bed, in isolation or in small hedges, with white roses, pink spiraeas, or sky blue ceanothus... The red and purple foliage of cotinus or physocarpus will enhance the brightness of its flowers and the pronounced colour of its red stems.

Planting and care
'Perle Rose' Ceanothus is hardy but can be susceptible to severe winter frosts, so plant in a sunny position sheltered from the wind. It thrives in fertile soil but can tolerate all types except very chalky soils. It is an easy plant to grow as long as the soil doesn't get waterlogged in winter, so ensure good drainage when planting.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
