Chilopsis linearis (Standard) - Desert Willow

Market price from $129.99 to $269.99

Chilopsis linearis (Standard) is celebrated as the Desert Willow, an outstanding low-maintenance member of our "Trees" collection. Adapting seamlessly to arid environments, this species unveils a marvelous show of trumpet-shaped flowers, unfurling in hues of pink to lavender from late spring to fall. It's a lively pull for hummingbirds and butterflies, enhancing the biodiversity of your landscape. Embodying the spirit of a willow, its graceful, slender leaves burst into vivid green in the spring and summer, shifting to a soothing yellow in the fall. The Desert Willow's towering yet balanced presence, stretching 15 to 30 feet in both height and width, along with its multi-trunk structure, provide not only a dramatic visual interest but also serve as an excellent windbreak. Moreover, thriving in well-drained soils and full sun, this perennial tree becomes not only a visual centerpiece but also a practical choice for water-conscious landscapes, as it notably thrives under low water usage. And as winter sets in, it continues to support your garden's ecosystem, offering seed pods as nourishment for local wildlife. The Desert Willow is the perfect choice if you are looking to add a hint of the extraordinary to your garden while embracing eco-friendly values.
