HEPTACODIUM STARS AND SPARKS
Grower Notes:

Heptacodium miconioides 'JFS GM1HM' Stars & Sparks™ is commonly referred to as Stars & Sparks™ Seven Son Flower. This unique deciduous tree is noteworthy for its upright growth habit and and stout branch structure. It reaches a mature height of 18 feet with a spread of 12 feet. Showy white flower clusters with bright red sepals appear in late summer that attract bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators when little else is flowering. Dark green leaves turn yellow to orange in fall. Tan exfoliating bark adds winter interest with its long papery strips.

Stars & Sparks™ Seven Son Flower is easy to grow and thrives in full sun to partial shade in evenly moist, well-drained soils. Prune in winter before the flower buds set. Pruning in spring or summer will remove the flower buds.
