An alluring tree that will not go unnoticed in the landscape, the Evening Light Japanese Snowbell captivates with color, fragrance and form. Perhaps its most notable outstanding feature is the glossy deep mahogany to purple-black leaves that provide a stunning contrast to the abundant downward pendulous clusters of wonderfully fragrant, bell-shaped white flowers that come in late spring and again in fall with adequate soil moisture during summer. The hummingbirds and butterflies will appreciate the flowers. We suggest at 6 hours or more of direct sunlight per day for the deepest foliage color throughout the growing season. It is also distinct from other upright varieties in that it forms a more columnar-oval shape that might reach 15 to 20 feet tall and 6 to 10 feet wide when all grown up. This makes it a fine fit as an enchanting focal point specimen for smaller garden spaces, as an accent or to frame corners in home foundation plantings, or in spaced groupings where space allows. Excellent around patios and other outdoor sitting and living spaces where the foliage and fragrance can be enjoyed from close up. Get all the details below
