An absolute beauty of a small tree. Large, white camellia-like flowers in July. Foliage is lustrous dark green during the summer and reddish-purple or scarlet in autumn. Truly outstanding bark exfoliates in multiple colors of cream, brown, and tan but stays tight and sinewy like musclewood. One of the most unique and desirable ornamental plants we can grow in Vermont.
