Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This is a truly extraordinary tree, combining its durability with its loveliness. The foliage is lustrous and deep dark-green creating the perfect back drop for the snow-white, fragrant, spring flower clusters. The blossoms develop into excellent orange-red fruits that are held through winter. The berries are edible, but perhaps better liked by the birds. This upright 15-25' tree tolerates dry soil and urban conditions; it does have thorns, so consider that when selecting a site. This beauty was first discovered in 1870 growing at the Arboretum Segrez in France. S/M
