Lovely Styrax


My Styrax Japonica (Snowbell) tree is in its glory right now, absolutely laden with these little white bells. It is so beautiful to look at, especially in the morning when a slight breeze is blowing the flowers all over the yard like snow. We planted it in 1991 (bought it at Merrifield for $44.95 according to my garden journal), and it has turned into a lovely backyard tree. It is underplanted with white 'Delaware Valley' azaleas and white daffodils, thus I call it my "White Garden," well actually, white corner.
