Closely related to our North American native Silverbell (Halesia) and just as beautiful and easy to grow, the 'Pink Chimes' Japanese Snowbell tree is a beautiful deciduous flowering tree with a broad rounded crown and horizontal branches that can weep to the ground as the tree matures to maybe 20 feet tall and wide. As the tree grows tall, lower branches can be removed to form an attractive small tree. In mid to late spring, Pink Chimes features abundant pendulous clusters of fragrant, bell-shaped, soft-pink flowers with showy yellow stamens. The drooping flower clusters are easily visible because of the upward posture of the foliage. Flowers give way to cream color, olive-shaped drupes that often persist into late fall to feed many species of birds. Ovate, glossy, medium to deep green leaves up to 3 inches long may turn yellow to red with the arrival of cooler temperatures in fall. Gray bark fissures on older branches to reveal orange inner bark, providing appeal during winter. Excellent in sunny or partially shaded woodland borders or near patios and other outdoor living spaces.

Japanese Snowbell is very easy to grow in a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. Very low maintenance when left alone and we've seen no serious insect or disease problems.
