Featured Plant

Chinese Pistache

Chinese Pistache

Pistacia chinensis

This medium sized tree is a great urban tree for the fall.  It grows about 30 to 35 feet tall and has a nice rounded shape.  It does not have particularly showy flowers, but the excellent orange-red fall color makes it a valued tree in the fall.  Because of its modest size and drought tolerance, this is a good tree for uban settings where small spaces, overhead power lines and poor soil conditions may limit tree selection.
