Lacebark Snow White
A lovely tree for year-round interest in milder areas, Hoheria sexstylosa Snow White is a small, evergreen tree with a graceful, upright, pyramidal habit. The long, elliptical leaves are grey-green, with serrated edges. Single, white flowers, rather like those of cherries, appear in summer, and are very attractive to butterflies. Lacebark Snow White needs a sheltered position, away from very cold, drying winds, and needs a thick mulch in winter to protect the roots. It needs minimal pruning, but if necessary prune in spring or after flowering.
