The Tree Of Heaven is a deciduous tree native to China. It was introduced to the United States in the 1800s and has become a famous ornamental tree.

Tree Of Heaven's Leaves

The leaves are unique in their strong odor. The leaves are also huge and can grow up to 12 inches long. They are dark green on top and light green on the bottom.

Tree Of Heaven's Appearance

The leaves start minor in the spring but become more prominent as the summer continues. The bark is grayish-brown and smooth. The branches are often crooked, which gives the tree a messy appearance. The flowers are small and yellow-green. They bloom from June to September, usually one flower per stem. Bees pollinate the flowers.

Tree Of Heaven's Fruit

The fruit of the Tree of Heaven is a small, brownish-black drupe. It is about one inch long and has one or two seeds inside. Animals do not usually eat the tree, but the fruit sometimes falls to the ground, and rodents or birds love it. The seeds are dispersed when the animals enjoy the fruit and then excrete them elsewhere.

The twigs of the Tree of Heaven are slender and reddish-brown. They grow in clusters and have an aromatic smell.

Tree Of Heaven's Uses

Its bark can be used to make dye, its sap can be used as glue, and its wood can be used for construction projects. This tree is often planted in cities because it is tolerant of pollution. It helps improve air quality by removing toxins from the air.

The tree can grow in various climates, but it prefers moist soil. You can purchase a seedling from a nursery or online or collect and plant the seeds yourself. Be sure to give your tree plenty of space to grow, as it will get big.
