The Evening Light Japanese Snowbell is a small deciduous specimen tree with very dark-purple leaves that keep their color from spring to fall. In early summer it is festooned with clusters of hanging white bell-shaped flowers that are sweetly fragrant. These are followed by brown-green fruits like olives that last into fall and are eaten by songbirds. Easy to grow, this tree is perfect as a lawn specimen, at the back of shrub beds, in sunny parts of woodlands and in Asian-style gardens.

  • Easily-grown small specimen tree
  • Striking dark-purple leaves from spring to fall
  • Laden with fragrant white hanging blooms in June
  • Olive-like berries are attractive to songbirds
  • Also suitable for planters and bonsai

Grow the Evening Light Japanese Snowbell in full sun for the best leaf colors, although it will also grow well in partial shade. It isn’t bothered by pests or diseases and it grows best in moist, well-drained soil that is neutral to acidic, but it isn’t as demanding as other acid-loving plants. Some occasional pruning to develop a clean trunk and an open crown is all the care this problem-free tree needs.
