Oxydendrum arboretum - Sourwood is a native tree that is a consistent favorite here at Greenwood.
The drooping panicles of brilliant white flowers begin in mid-summer and persist into autumn. The vibrant and dependable fall color of Sourwood often transitions from an orange red to brick red to flaming scarlet and displays the most vivid fall colors of any tree species.
This plant is difficult to transplant and should not be purchased bare root. Greenwood Nursery will only sell container-grown plants in this species. Sourwood should be planted into acid, moist, and well-drained soil high in organic matter. It is best in light shade, particularly during the heat of summer. Perfect for accent, grouping, or specimen plantings.
Although sourwood can tolerate dry soils, it needs irrigation during drought periods, particularly when accompanied by high temperatures. In zones 8 and 9, sourwoods should be planted in shaded areas. The sourwood is not a good selection for polluted or urban areas.
