Early in the spring this spreading, shrubby tree has branches draped with thousands of white clusters of nodding, bell shaped flowers. It is sometimes called the Snowdrop Tree because of its snowy white bells. Flowers are followed by 4-winged, pear shaped fruit. Growing to a 30' tree, it flowers young and grows relatively rapidly.

This large shrub is lovely in spring when the branches are festooned with small white bells which flutter in a breeze "like a cloud of butterflies" (B.Miles). Sun-PSh/Med
