Silk Tassel Bush

It would be hard to resist answering the question ‘what is that delightful tree’? with anything other than; ‘Roof, James Roof’. It certainly has a strong, vigorous male form, with large leathery foliage of deep greens. However, there’s a softened edge to the looks, with unusually long-tassel flowers of up to 22 cm in length, emerging during winter for a decorative show. The uniqueness of this Evergreen lends itself to architectural and feature planting. Grows to 2.5m x 2m.

Suitable for: Architectural & feature planting

Features: Leathery foliage & long tassel flowers

Botanical Name: GARRYA elliptica ‘James Roof’
