What a delight the madrona tree is to the birds [; us!] throughout the year (Haskin); an elegant large tree with satiny reddish peeling bark, large glossy leaves ; showy white flowers followed by red fruits; Sun/Dry/GdDrain

Temperamental to establish but always worth a try provided it has good drainage and no summer water. Amazing bark. Large tree to 35 feet if content.
