Why Choose American Fringe Tree?

1. Spectacular Spring Blooms
   The American Fringe Tree is most admired for its incredible springtime display of fragrant, white, fringe-like flowers that hang in delicate clusters. These feathery blooms appear in late spring, creating a cloud of snowy-white beauty that will brighten up any garden. The tree's blooms are not only a show-stopper for humans but also attract bees and other pollinators, making it an eco-friendly choice.

2. Compact Size with Big Impact
   The American Fringe Tree typically grows 12 to 20 feet tall, making it an excellent choice for smaller gardens, patios, or as an accent tree in larger landscapes. Its compact size means it can fit easily into various spaces, yet its graceful blooms and lovely, glossy green leaves give it a big impact in any setting. In the fall, the leaves turn a stunning yellow, adding more seasonal interest.

3. Native & Wildlife-Friendly
   As a native Florida tree, the American Fringe Tree is well-adapted to the local climate and requires minimal care once established. It is also highly valuable to wildlife, attracting pollinators such as bees with its fragrant blooms. In late summer, female trees produce small, dark blue berries that are loved by birds, providing an important food source and adding another layer of beauty to your garden.

4. Drought-Tolerant & Adaptable
   American Fringe Trees are hardy and adaptable to various soil types, thriving in both full sun and partial shade. They tolerate drought well once established, making them an excellent choice for low-maintenance landscapes. Their ability to grow in a range of conditions, from moist woodlands to dry, sandy soils, makes them a versatile and resilient option for Florida gardeners.

5. Low Maintenance & Disease Resistant
   The American Fringe Tree is remarkably low maintenance, requiring little more than occasional watering during dry periods and light pruning to maintain its shape. It is also relatively pest and disease-resistant, making it an easy-care tree that will reward you with years of beauty with minimal effort.
