Comments:
This is a delightful small deciduous tree that produces an abundance of white, bell-shaped flowers in spring. Provide a fertile, well drained soil and some sunlight, preferably during the morning hours. This selection cannot tolerate dry conditions for long periods. This can make a nice small patio tree but is not readily available in the trade.
