Forestiera angustifolia 'Woodlanders Weeping'

Few plants we've grown enchant us like Forestiera angustifolia 'Woodlanders Weeping'. This incredible weeping selection of the usually scraggly, upright Texas native is typically found in dry alkaline soils. This special form was discovered in Calhoun County, Texas in 1992 by our friend Bob McCartney and the late Texas plantsman, Lynn Lowrey. In 1996, Bob, Lynn, and Patrick McMillan returned to the site for cuttings. Surprisingly, it' also fine in moist acidic soils, and seemingly has no garden conditions where it doesn't thrive. The incredible structure really shines when the leaves drop in fall. Mature size is 6' tall x 25' wide, so be sure you have a large enough space.
