Edgeworthia papyrifera / CHINESE PAPERBUSH

Edgeworthia papyrifera, commonly known as Chinese Paperbush, is a deciduous shrub prized for its striking, fragrant clusters of yellow to white flowers that bloom in late winter to early spring. The flowers, which resemble small, delicate paper blooms, emerge before the leaves appear, creating a stunning contrast against the bare branches. This shrub has oval, dark green leaves that turn yellow in the fall, adding seasonal interest. Chinese Paperbush thrives in well-drained, slightly acidic soil and prefers full sun to partial shade, making it ideal for garden borders, woodland edges, or as a specimen plant. With its winter blooms and unique form, Edgeworthia papyrifera is a beautiful and fragrant addition to any garden, especially in colder climates where its early spring blossoms are a welcome sight.
