The Tokyo Tower Fringetree (Chionanthus retusus 'Tokyo Tower') is a unique and elegant deciduous tree that offers multi-season interest and a distinctive vertical growth habit. Named after the famous Tokyo Tower in Japan, this tree is an excellent choice for adding height and visual interest to your landscape.
Tokyo Tower Fringetree is a relatively small tree, typically reaching heights of 12 to 15 feet, with a slender, upright growth habit. This vertical structure makes it an excellent choice for narrow spaces or as a focal point in the garden. The tree is adaptable to various soil types and prefers full sun to partial shade. It is hardy in USDA zones 6 through 9, making it suitable for a wide range of climates.
One of the most striking features of the Tokyo Tower Fringetree is its stunning floral display. In late spring to early summer, the tree produces an abundance of delicate, fragrant, white flowers that hang in clusters, resembling a fringe. The flowers create a spectacular contrast against the tree's dark green foliage and can last for several weeks, attracting pollinators such as butterflies and bees.
The foliage of the Tokyo Tower Fringetree is another appealing feature that adds to its charm. The leaves are simple, opposite, and elliptical in shape, with a glossy dark green color. In autumn, the foliage turns a vibrant shade of yellow, adding a burst of color to the landscape and extending the tree's seasonal interest.
