Description

This beautiful tree slowly reaches 25'-30' high; a flower deformity makes this tree fruitless (less pollen). Foliage is soft looking, green and reminds one of willow trees. Trunk is smooth and gray, becoming gnarled with maturity. It will grow in coastal areas as well as inland warm valleys. It tolerates rich soil as well as gravelly, alkaline, poor soil. Once it's established, it needs water 1-2 times per month in the summer and no water in winter.

Water Saving Tip:

In general, lawns only need to be watered once every three days.

Check your irrigation controller and reduce watering times if necessary.
