Evodia danielii

China, Korea

Rounded, spreading, umbrella-shaped habit.

Easily grown in consistently moist, moderately fertile, well-drained soils in full sun. Tolerates some light shade. May be grown from seed planted in the ground in fall. Plants exhibit rapid growth in early years.

Evodia danielii is not at all well known in the trade but is worthy of more extensive use. Evodia works well in a small landscape and possibly for urban situations.

Lustrous dark green

The bark of mature trees resembles that of a beech tree; smooth and gray.

The flowers are white and profuse in the late summer. Bees love them.

The fruit is quite ornamental. It is a red or black capsule that forms in late August through November.:
