{"id":5159306428550,"title":"Sourwood Tree","handle":"sourwood-tree","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Sourwood Tree (Oxydendrum arboreum) also know as the sorrel tree, is a deciduous understory tree that is native to the eastern United States. It is perhaps most commonly found on rocky wooded slopes in the Appalachian Mountains, often growing in combination with other heath family members that share the same acidic soil preferences. Gray bark on mature trees is fissured, ridged and scaly. Leaves have a sour taste, hence the common name, and also produce consistently excellent fall color, typically turning crimson red. Waxy, lily-of-the-valley-like, white flowers bloom on slender, drooping, one-sided terminal panicles in early summer. Flowers have a slight fragrance. Flower panicle stems remains in place as the flowers give way to 5-parted dry capsules that ripen to silver-gray in September. Capsules contrast well with the red fall color and provide continuing ornamental interest after leaves drop into winter. Flowers are quite attractive to bees. Sourwood honey is a highly prized local product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eHEIGHT: 20-50'\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWIDTH: 10-25'\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePrefers full sun to partial shade\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eZones: 5-9\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you are purchasing is 1 Sourwood tree, featuring our GTSuper Roots System, shipped at a size of your choosing.
