Magnificent specimen originally from China, up to 5m high and wide, with a parasol-like shape and large, pale green, lance-shaped, deciduous leaves.
Incredible and striking pure white bloom with a beautiful crimson red calyx, appearing in August and September. Very fragrant and with a good size, between 15-20cm in diameter.
In addition to this, its turquoise berries appear in autumn and although they are not edible, they are very decorative and attractive to birds and wild animals.
