Clerodendrum trichotomum, Harlequin Glory Bower / Peanut Butter Tree

Lily-scented white summer flowers perfume warm evenings on this deciduous shrub/tree; followed by wonderfully unusual, bright pink, puffy, star-shaped fruit with a metallic bright blue bead in the center! This plant breaks dormancy very late in spring so don't worry that it's met its demise; it will come around just when you start to give up on it and delight you no end.  Safe for livestock consumption. Beloved by hummingbirds, butterflies, honeybees, and other pollinators. Brush the leaves & smell peanut butter! Deciduous shrub/tree; mature size: 10-12 ft T x W Minimum temperature: -10° F
