Fringe Tree

The Fringe Tree, also known as the Grancy Greybeard, is a shrub or small tree with a short trunk, narrow, oblong crown, and showy masses of fragrant, lacy, white flowers that hang in drooping clusters in late spring. The soft, wispy flowers are followed by dark blue fruits in the summer that are enjoyed by many animals. One of the last trees to bear new leaves in spring, the Fringe Tree appears dead until the leaves and flowers appear. This trouble-free plant is very adaptable and tolerant of poor soil and drought. Height: 12-20’
