Details

A native of northern China, it is a deciduous low-growing tree that can eventually reach up to 15m in height. Its leaves are palmate, dark green and shiny, and its white flowers with yellow and red bases appear in upright panicles in spring. The spherical fruits, adorned with soft thorns, contain large, brown and shiny seeds. Groe in rich, moist, well drained soils in full sun to part shade. Best with consistent moisture, avoid dry soils.

We despatch our orders through courier service once a week.
