Aurora False Spirea at Lost Lagoon

They are so beautiful, in all stages of blossoming

 

Aurora False Spirea (sorbaria sorbifolia) - commonly known as False Spirea, it's a deciduous perennial plant belonging to the rose family. It is also known by its older names of Spiraea sorbifolia L. and Schizonotus sorbifolius (L.) Lindl. Other common names are False Goat's Beard, Sorb-leaved Schizonotus, and Ural False Spirea.

 

I like the Chinese name for it better .... Chinese: pinyin: zhen zhu mei; literally: "pearl plum".

 

Sorbaria sorbifolia grows naturally in temperate areas of Asia including Siberia, the Soviet Far East of Russia, northern China, Japan and Korea. It has been introduced as a garden ornamental elsewhere into Europe and North America
