Heptapleurum taiwanianum
- Evergreen
- Loved by Garden Birds
- Loved by Pollinators
Architectural grace and tropical allure combine in ‘umbrella tree’ from Taiwan, which can be grown as a single-stemmed or multi-stemmed plant
New young leaves are shiny in colour thanks to the silvery hairs, whilst mature leaves are smoother. In late summer, sprays of green-brown flowers are produced, giving way to clusters of deep purple-black berries in winter.
We may occasionally send a substitute variety, carefully chosen by our growers for suitability and of equal or greater value. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
