This tree belongs to the Hamamelidaceae family and is prized for its unique qualities, making it a sought-after choice for gardens, parks, and landscapes.
Common Name: Persian IronwoodMature Height (meters): Typically grows to a height of 6-10 meters, forming an upright and well-branched canopy.
Mature Width (meters): Spreads to approximately 4-8 meters, creating a broad and picturesque crown.
Spacing: Plant with ample spacing to allow for the tree's mature size and to showcase its distinctive form and features.
Leaves: The leaves of Parrotia persica are ovate and green during the growing season, providing a lush backdrop to its other ornamental qualities.

Flowers: In late winter to early spring, Persian Ironwood produces small, crimson flowers with bright yellow stamens, adding delicate beauty to the tree during the dormant season.
Fall Foliage: In the fall, the leaves of Parrotia persica turn a stunning array of colors, including shades of orange, red, and purple, creating a vibrant and picturesque display.
Form/Habit: Persian Ironwood has a naturally upright and well-structured growth habit, making it an excellent choice for gardens, parks, and as a focal point in landscapes.
Uses: Ideal as a specimen tree in gardens and landscapes, where its distinctive bark, vibrant fall foliage, and delicate winter flowers can be showcased. It is also suitable for urban environments due to its manageable size and ornamental qualities.
Sun: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, with the best fall foliage coloration occurring in full sun.
