Albizia julibrissin 'Ombrella' Size:17cm / 2L A stunning bright-green shimmery speciesAlbizia julibrissin 'Ombrella', the silk tree or Persian silk tree, is one of the most exotic looking hardy trees you can grow in a British garden. 'Ombrella' is a compact, umbrella shaped selection that carries clouds of fluffy pink powderpuff flowers through midsummer above delicate, ferny foliage that folds up at night. It brings a real touch of the Mediterranean to a sunny border or courtyard, and the flowers are a magnet for bees and butterflies.
