Robinia pseudoacacia ‘Lace Lady’ plants in 5L pots
Family Papilionaceae
Originating from E.USA
An appealing little tree with contorted branches and tightly packed clusters of curled leaves. These emerge apple green in spring and curl, revealing their grey underside. As the leaves mature they become a deep green/blue, but the tips of the branches continue growing throughout summer, producing fresh bright green leaves. Twisty Baby has an amazing pendulous habit with long branches, weighed down with the weight of the abundant foliage. The wacky branching structure gives interest in winter, even when denuded of foliage.
Our Robinia pseudoacacia ‘Lace Lady’ plants in 10L pots will vigorously grow into a striking shrub – easily shaped with annual or bi-annual pruning, or into a small tree if left un-pruned. Undemanding in most garden soil in full sun or light shade. Will tolerate poor, dry soil once established.
Height and spread after 10-20 years 5m x 4m
