Elaeocarpus reticulatus 'Blueberry Ash'

Elaeocarpus reticulatus is the 'Blueberry Ash' and is a versatile small tree suited to a range of climates from cool through to sub tropical. Growing to 6m and with attractive pink 'fringed' flowers in late spring Elaeocarpus reticulatus makes a nice small feature tree.

Because of the limited growth it is well suited as a street tree where it will not interfere with most powerlines, root systems are relatively non invasive and the Blueberry Ash can work well as a screening plant or windbreak.

Frost resistant, growing well in full sun to part shade Elaeocarpus reticulatus is readily availble for sale and is probably a little under used in Australia.
