Product Overview
Introduced to the U.S. by the Arnold Arboretum, this unusual 15-20'shrub/tree makes a welcome addition to the landscape palette with its white, fragrant, late-summer flowers which are produced at a young age and are stunning contrasting the bright-green foliage, after bloom, the striking rosy-red calyces hang on into autumn, with age it develops its fabulous rough-peeling bark that is a wonderful winter sight, especially when covered in frost; this plant was once thought to be extinct, but was happily rediscovered in its native China.
