  • Position: full sun or partial shade
  • Soil: moist, well-drained acidic soil
  • Rate of growth: average
  • Flowering period: May to June
  • Hardiness: frost hardy (may require winter protection)

    A deciduous shrub or small, spreading tree from woodland China, with dark green, oval, toothed leaves and pendant spring to early summer flowers that are white, star-shaped, and best admired when viewing from below. Egg-shaped, woody fruits can develop later in the season. As with other members of the Styrax family of plants, Sinojackia prefers a lime-free soil and a sheltered location, with dappled shade being preferable to full sun. Resistant to deer.

  • Garden care: Mulch during the early spring to help retain moisture during the summer. Prefers a moist, humus-rich, and acidic soil but shelter from cold drying winds.
