Blue Palo Verde Tree

The Blue Palo Verde is a fast-growing desert tree known for its striking blue-green bark and sculptural form. Native to the Sonoran Desert, it features a wide-spreading, airy canopy that provides light shade. In spring, it is completely transformed by a profusion of bright yellow, pea-like flowers. This drought-deciduous species is highly heat-tolerant and thrives in well-drained soils, making it an ideal focal point or transition tree for water-wise landscapes.
