Cedrela sinensis 'Flamingo' 330mm Pot

 

Spectacular deciduous feature tree prized for its brilliant flamingo-pink new foliage that creates a breathtaking display each spring before maturing through cream, green and bronze tones.

 

Cedrela sinensis 'Flamingo', commonly known as the Chinese Cedar, is an outstanding ornamental tree renowned for its colourful flushes of soft pink new growth. The finely divided foliage emerges bright flamingo pink in spring before gradually changing to cream, light green and finally rich green as it matures. In autumn, the leaves develop attractive golden tones before falling, providing year-round seasonal interest. Its elegant upright habit makes it a stunning specimen tree for larger gardens and landscapes.

 

Fast growing and easy to maintain, Flamingo is an exceptional choice for creating a dramatic focal point in the garden.
