Description

This medium-sized tree will grow 15'-30' tall and has bright green summer leaves, orange red fall foliage, with white spring blooms, and orange fruit that persists on deciduous winter branches. It will do best in full sun, slightly acidic well draining soil. It does best with medium amount of watering as you will get more fruit.

Water Saving Tip:

Group plants with similar water needs together so that some plants aren't over watered to meet the needs of their more thirsty neighbors.

Never include shrub and lawn areas in the same sprinkler zone.
