Product details

A living piece of botanical history, Franklinia alatamaha delivers rare beauty and unforgettable seasonal interest.This small, highly sought-after tree is native to the USA and prized for its striking summer display of large, pure white, camellia-like cup-shaped flowers up to 6 cm across, each centred with golden stamens and offering a light fragrance. Set against glossy, dark green oblong leaves, the blooms appear from July to August and can continue into early autumn, when the foliage turns brilliant shades of orange and red. Now extinct in the wild, Franklinia alatamaha adds both elegance and fascinating heritage to gardens, offering standout appeal across multiple seasons.Ultimate height: 3m to 4.5m (9.8ft – 14.8m) . Ultimate spread: 2.5m to 4m (8.2 - 13ft).
