Joshua Trees

An iconic sight in the Mojave Desert, the Joshua Tree is not only a plant of unique beauty, but also a hugely important component of the desert ecosystem. A large, slow-growing, upright tree with a stout trunk, heavy branches and an open, rounded crown of spiky leaves. A magnificent mass of creamy-white flowers appears in spring and will draw in all sorts of pollinators. A true showpiece in any xeric landscape design.

  • Large evergreen tree
  • Greenish-white flowers in spring
  • Slow growing upright habit
