It can be found in southern states as far west as Tennessee and Kentucky and as far north as Ohio.

During the summer, the tree provides ample bright white blossoms that attract beneficial pollinators, including honey bees. Its leaves are long-shaped and a lush green color. During the winter, the tree is decorated with seed pods.

Sourwood Seedlings

They were well packaged and we were sent greater than 100 seedlings in great condition. They did arrive late but likely due to the carrier.
