Eriobotrya deflexa is a versatile evergreen tree known for its rounded, spreading habit, reaching 15 to 25 feet. Its most striking feature is the large, leathery foliage that emerges in a brilliant bronze hue before maturing into a deep, glossy green. In spring, the tree produces clusters of fragrant white flowers, followed by small, inedible fruits. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil, making it an ideal choice for specimen planting or screening.
