Description
The ‘Tortuosa’ is a great tree for adding structural interest to your garden: it features contorted, twisted branches that make an unusual focal point. The leaves are divided into leaflets and they are dark green in colour and hang on corkscrew-like shoots. The flowers only appear on established trees and these are pink-white and sweetly scented. In winter, the twisted framework looks delightful when topped with snow – making this a great tree for year round interest.
Common Name: Tortuosa Black Locust
