¡®Black Tulip¡¯s superb, goblet-shaped 6¡± blooms draw admiring attention¡ªoohs and ahs!¡ªwith their have-to-see-to-believe-it black-purple color. New Zealand-bred compact tree, growing to 11.5¡¯, flowers earlier than most¡ªwithin the first few seasons. A well-chosen addition to a small garden or mysteriously glowing in the landscape. Does best in sun. Little pruning is called for.
