Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This tree may be small in size, but not in impact. Spring leaves emerge green and deeply veined, twisting at the tips as they mature. Profuse clusters of fragrant white flowers bloom for weeks in the summer, attracting pollinators of all kinds. Once the flowers fall, there appears to be a second bloom as the brilliant red, fan-like bracts are revealed. When the leaves have dropped for winter, the tree's elegant form, and toasty-brown, peeling bark is exposed. A truly beautiful specimen all year long! PP30763

Lovely small, deciduous tree 6-10’ tall with a rounded crown slightly less wide than tall. Beautiful clusters of fragrant, ivory flowers in late summer (think hummer and pollinator fest!) that give way to showy red bracts. Creamy tan and copper bark exfoliates with age, providing winter interest as well. Foliage is long and elegant, with a slight twist to the leaves. Perfect specimen for that special spot. Sun, average garden soil, water when dry.
