Robinia ‘Purple Robe’ Locust Tree
Price range: $39.99 through $249.99
Robinia “Purple Robe”
This lovely tree has the wow factor aplenty in Spring when it produces masses of perfumed, purple/cerise coloured blossoms, which droop down attractively like a Wisteria (hence the pet name “The Wisteria Tree”).
It has fine looking foliage which turns to yellow before shedding for Winter. Purple Robe is a small to medium tree, growing to approx. 8m but is happy to be trimmed. It has a single, straight trunk, has a reasonable growth rate and copes well with frost and drought. A visual beauty.
