Hankerchief Tree
Davidia involucrata, commonly known as the handkerchief tree, is truly a unique specimen. In May, its large white bracts resemble handkerchiefs drying on the branches, creating a stunning display. The tree’s heart-shaped, mid-green leaves have soft, downy undersides that further enhance its ornamental appeal.
This deciduous tree thrives in sunny or partially shaded areas with fertile, moist, well-drained soil. It is best sheltered from strong winds. As it matures, Davidia involucrata can reach a height of 15 metres, with a spread of up to 10 metres, making it an impressive tree for larger gardens or woodland areas.
