Sourwood Tree Seedlings are primarily found in the woodlands and along the water in the eastern part of North America. This type is in an array of colors for three seasons out of the year. Its fragrant flowers are white in the summer, followed by yellow seeds. The seeds turn brown and hang on throughout the winter. The leaves can be red, yellow, or purple in the fall. This showy type needs a prominent place in the landscape scheme.

They can grow around 30 feet high. They do great in full sunlight and are adaptable to various soil conditions. This type will produce approximately 2 to 3 feet yearly and look great when planted in a flower garden or natural area.

Sourwood Tree Have Stunning Blooms

Unlike most types, it boasts clusters of creamy white flowers in the summer heat. These dainty, fragrant flowers resemble those of the Lily-of-the-Valley plant.

The Foliage Of The Tree Is Stunning In Spring To Fall

Come fall, the shiny dark green leaves transform to vibrant red, rusty orange, golden yellow, and royal purple to end the growing season with pizazz. Gray seed capsules will contrast with the bright leaves and provide food for wildlife. This ornamental type is native to America, and its leaves can be ingested to assuage thirst. The scaly bark has an exciting texture and a reddish tinge to its gray base.

This seedling is a beneficial and beautiful type that will make a delightful addition to any landscape.

They are also known as the Sorrel, are medium-sized and grow from 33 to 66 feet tall. It grows like a pyramid or narrow oval shape at a slow rate. Most can live for 100-200 years. The pointed, oval-shaped leaves are dark green in the summer and turn red, purple, or yellow in the fall.

Honey Bees Love This Tree Seedlings

It is usually one of the first to change colors in the fall. Fragrant white flowers bloom from June to early July. The blooms resemble lily-of-the-valley, slender, drooping, one-sided flowers with seed pods that last into fall. Small wooden fruit capsules hang from them in winter. The branches droop toward the ground; these flowers attract honey-producing bees. The bark is grayish-brown, red-toned, rough, and furrowed.

These Tree Seedlings Are Hardy To Soil Types

Sourwood tree seedlings grow in slightly acidic, loamy-moist, sandy, and clay soils. They require regular watering but can survive moderate drought and adapt to the sun or shade. They grow in hardiness zones 5-9 and can be found from Pennsylvania to Florida. They are native to Eastern North America.
