Chilopsis Linearis Desert Willow

Chilopsis Linearis Desert Willow thrives in full sun in well-drained soils. Desert Willow grabs attention in beds and borders. The ornamental tree is clothed in narrow, willowy leaves. Desert Willow bears showy masses of pleasantly fragrant, trumpet-shaped, pale pink to lavender blooms from late spring to fall. The blooms give way to bean-like pods that survive in the following spring. They further produce seeds having winged hairs. The deciduous shrub shows a spreading growth habit.
