Description
Introducing the Persian Ironwood, an exceptional small-scale shade tree prized for its vibrant and evolving foliage. In spring, the canopy emerges with reddish-purple to bronze leaves that transition to glossy dark green in summer, creating a lush and dense shade.
Come autumn, the Persian Ironwood transforms into a breathtaking display of colors, with leaves turning vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and red. This seasonal spectacle adds a burst of beauty to any landscape.
Adding to its charm, the Persian Ironwood features attractive exfoliating bark that reveals a mosaic of colors throughout the year. In late winter, small red-anthered flowers bloom directly on bare branches, offering early-season interest and attracting pollinators.
Ideal for gardens, parks, and urban landscapes, the Persian Ironwood thrives in sunny to partially shaded locations with well-drained soil. Its moderate size makes it suitable for smaller yards while providing ample shade and aesthetic appeal.
