Toona sinensis Flamingo

 

Chinese cedar Flamingo

A stunner of a tree originating from South East Asia that sports interesting foliage from Spring through to Summer. Foliage starts off a bright orangey-pink before transforming to creamy white and then dark green all on red stems later in the year. Added interest comes from fragrant flowers in mid summer.
