Persian Silk Tree is a deciduous shade tree known for its feathery foliage topped with silky pink summer flowers. Persian Silk Tree flowers in summer in shades of pink, and performs best in full sun with moderate watering once established. This tree matures to roughly 20-35 feet tall and 20-35 feet wide. It is ideal as a specimen or shade tree on larger properties, where its canopy has room to develop, offering long-term shade and strong seasonal colour. Once established it needs little attention, making Persian Silk Tree a dependable choice for Canadian gardens. A layer of mulch helps hold moisture and keeps roots cool in summer.
