Chinese Fringetree (Chionanthus retusus) What kind of plant is as tough as nails, has beautiful foliage, snow-white flowers, and exfoliating bark? It's the Chinese bangs. It is native to Korea, China and Japan.
This easy-to-grow deciduous tree displays a showy, white, clustered flower that appears in fringes each spring. While the male plant has brighter flowers than the female, the attractive fruits that birds and some mammals use as a food source only appear on the female plant... 🤍💚
