This tree provides a lovely cascading habit from a central upright stem and has the ability to grow as high as you chose to support it.

Yielding dark to medium green foliage through the warmer seasons, come fall we are blessed with lovely golden yellow hues as well as some reds.

In early spring and throughout the warmer months, this Snowbell provides waves of cascading, white, bell shaped flowers that bring forth a charming scent. When the blooms come to an end, this tree produces berries that invite songbirds to feast and dance across your landscape!

Planting Zones
Hardiness Zone: 5-8
How To Plant Fragrant Fountain Japanese Snowbell
Grow your Fragrant Fountain Japanese Snowbell in locations that provide full to partial sun. When considering soil types, this Japanese Snowbell tends to be slightly picky, enjoying more rich, acidic soils. You may want to test your soil and make the necessary amendments before planting to ensure proper growth. While being tolerant to urban pollution, it would be within the best interest of the tree to plant it in a sheltered location.
How To Water
When first planted and until it's established, maintain a watering schedule that will allow the soil to be kept moist. Achieve this by watering deeply twice a week for the first few months. As time progresses, lesson your watering to once a week until fully established.
How To Fertilize
The ideal time to fertilize your Fragrant Fountain Japanese Snowbell is in early spring, as your tree begins to break dormancy for the year. You should fertilize again in fall as it begins to go dormant. This way, you can be sure that your tree has all the nutrients it needs as it goes dormant for the season!
How To Prune
When looking to prune your Fragrant Fountain Japanese Snowbell, we advise doing so in late winter or early spring, while the tree is in dormancy. Prune away any dead or damaged branches to give a pristine look to your tree. Pro tip, while the tree is still young, prune the lower branches to the trunk to give a more tree like appearance!
How Does Shipping Work?
Bower & Branch Trees, the real BIG trees, don’t fit in a box! Our big trees, sizes XL and bigger, require expert delivery and care, that means our extra-large trees are shipped on Bower & Branch trucks. We are the only ones who know how to ship our big and bigger trees and plants with tender loving care. We deliver your trees and plants directly to you. Ask Bower & Branch about planting services – we'd be happy to assist in installation.
*For Big trees and Shrubs, Size XL and bigger: Review our Seasonal Shipping Timelines and Policy here.
Your trees and plants are grown across the United States at various Bower & Branch Growers. Depending on your location, your plant orders may be shipped from various locations. Please expect orders with multiple items to be delivered over a number of days as a result. Orders made up of numerous items or selections will not arrive at your home on the same day.
Shipping Delays:
From time to time, Bower & Branch Growers may determine to delay order shipment based on various factors for plant health. Weather in your region, as well as, where your plants are grown, is always considered when shipping. Extreme weather conditions may delay some or all of your order. Bower & Branch allows our Growers to make final shipping decisions based solely to benefit your trees and plants’ health and success.
How Does Sizing Work?
The size of our trees have nothing to do with the container size like you may find elsewhere–big doesn't mean just height - it’s also vigor, age, and overall health. Other online retailers are going to tell you that a plant is a seven gallon, that means nothing to your tree or plant (or you.)
Our trees for sale online are graded on large, x-large, and even bigger sizes. This is because our trees are sized by their age—the higher the letter, the more mature the tree. The age determines the trees’ overall height, size of the trunk and the overall branch density.
All of these characteristics are what you should be looking for when choosing a tree for immediate impact and instant curb appeal. Our extra-large tree and plant sizes are sure to wow you and your neighbors!
