This cultivar creates a fragrant cloud of rich bubblegum-pink blossoms on bare branches in spring. It grows to 40 feet tall and wide.
Lemon-lime foliage, fuzzy stems, and intense fall color make this sumac cultivar a standout. It grows into an upright, rounded form about 6 feet tall and as wide. New growth emerges chartreuse. Fall brings leaves of yellow, scarlet, and orange. Flowers are yellowish green and followed, on female plants, by hairy, dark red fruit. This plant spreads by suckers and can be invasive. The species is native to North America.
'Schubert' choke cherry has a pyramidal form and vivid foliage that makes it a great focal point. Abundant, dark red-purple fruit follow the ephemeral, light pink flowers. The fruit is attractive to birds, so 'Schubert' choke cherry should not be planted near patios or walks due to the calling cards well-fed birds leave behind. Ask if the tree you buy is grafted onto nonsuckering rootstock; otherwise, suckers could pose problems down the road.
This tree has lobed leaves that are green on top and gray-white beneath. It turns bright red in autumn. Its form can be round to open-headed.
This is a rounded to open-crown deciduous tree up to 70 feet tall and 30 feet wide with early, brilliant red fall coloring.
