Hoheria glabrata

Hoheria glabrata Details

Hoheria glabrata, commonly known as Mountain Ribbonwood, is an attractive, deciduous tree growing to about 10 m and 3 m wide. The oval leaves are bright green with a serrated edge and develop attractive, yellow-red tones in autumn before falling. Fragrant, white flowers are produced in summer and literally cover the tree. It prefers a moist, well-drained soil and full sun position for best performance. This Lacebark will, however, tolerate dry and semi-wet soil conditions as well as coastal environments, frost, and cold climates once established. Hoheria glabrata is an ideal tree for mixed plantings, as a quick growing shelter plant, riparian planting, or treating as a specimen in a medium to large sized garden.
