Description

Closely related to our native Silverbell (Halesia) and just as beautiful and easy to grow, the ‘Pink Chimes’ Japanese Snowbell tree is a beautiful deciduous flowering tree with a broad rounded crown and horizontal branches that weep as the tree matures to maybe 20 feet tall and wide. In mid to late spring, Pink Chimes features abundant pendulous clusters of fragrant, bell-shaped, soft-pink flowers with showy yellow stamens. The drooping flower clusters are easily visible because of the upward posture of the foliage. Flowers give way to cream color, olive-shaped drupes that often persist into late fall to feed many species of birds. Ovate, glossy, medium to deep green leaves up to 3 inches long may turn yellow to red with the arrival of cooler temperatures in fall. Gray bark fissures on older branches to reveal orange inner bark providing appeal during winter. Excellent in sunny or partially shaded woodland borders or near patios and other outdoor living spaces.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 15 to 20 feet tall and wide at maturity, the Pink Chimes Japanese Snowbell is ideal for use a specimen or in groupings in landscape and woodland borders. A fine addition to woodland gardens, bird gardens, pink theme gardens, fragrance gardens and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 25 feet for space between trees

Growing Preferences

Japanese Snowbell is very easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. Very low maintenance when left alone and we’ve seen no serious insect or disease problems.

Plant Long & Prosper!

Styrax are not very easy to find so I ordered one as soon as I was aware they were available. I was very happy with the size, especially as it was a one gallon. Much larger than just just a well rooted cutting. This was probably my 6th order from Wilson and it won’t be my last.————————————————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

The 1 gallon plant looked good, however a week in the box and drastic temperature change from a warm greenhouse to mid November lows caused most of the leaves to fall off while green. I feel obligated to acclimate the tree for a week or two before planting.——————————————————I’m sure it will acclimate, they are pretty tough. Thanks for the photo! Thanks so much for your review. Let us know if there’s ever anything we can help you with. 🙂 – Beth | WBG
