Know before you buy
At maturity, this tree typically reaches a height and spread of 6 to 8 feet. Its upright, pyramidal form makes it a manageable size for most residential garden focal points.
No, the blooms are dynamic. They start as a vibrant lime green, transition to a creamy white, and eventually fade into soft pink tones as the season progresses from summer into fall.
This variety is quite versatile and thrives in either full sun or partial shade. For the most prolific blooming, ensure it receives at least six hours of sunlight daily.
While it is sold in a 10-gallon container, it is best suited for in-ground planting to accommodate its mature size. If you choose to keep it in a pot, ensure it is a very large, heavy-duty container with excellent drainage to support its root system.
You will enjoy blooms from summer through the fall months. The long-lasting nature of these conical clusters provides consistent seasonal interest for your landscape.
