Notes
Swedish whitebeam (Hedlundia arranensis) is a tree for borders. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It grows 30 to 40 feet tall and wide, so give it plenty of room. Birds visit the tree, and it tolerates acid, alkaline, and neutral soil pH.
Pairs well with Japanese maple, Juneberry, Festiva Maxima peony, and Grape hyacinth.
