Evening Light

Glossy deep purple foliage is unique among snowbells, providing a dramatically dark backdrop for fragrant white, bell shaped flowers that appear mid to late spring. Best color is created in a full sun location & with adequate soil moisture, some re-blooming may occur. Reaches roughly 15 feet tall by 10 feet wide in size.

Nightfall

A weeping variety. A cascade of dark purple leaves tumble from the branches of this elegant weeping tree. The dense, dark, refined foliage sets a lush, high-contrast backdrop for white buds in mid to late spring that open to fragrant creamy white, bell-shaped flowers. Bare branches etch a graceful waterfall in the winter landscape. An excellent specimen that reaches roughly 8 feet tall by 6 feet wide in size.
