ARIZONA ROSEWOOD

---

• An evergreen large shrub or small tree, native to Southern Arizona. Needs to be pruned and trained if a single-trunk tree is desired. Interesting branching pattern. Hardy to 15 degrees F.
  
• Dark green, stiff leaves with serrated margins 2-3 inches long. Clusters of white flowers in late spring and early summer. Develop small, brown fruit pods, about a quarter inch long, that hang on the tree until about the following winter. Drought and heat tolerant; a good addition to the desert garden.
   
• Grows 15-20 feet tall, slightly less wide.
