Description
If you’re looking for a tree that feels instantly exotic and uplifting, Albizia julibrissin (the Silk Tree) is a real showstopper. With a multi-stem form, it creates a beautifully architectural shape from the ground up — perfect for adding structure, light shade, and that “holiday garden” feeling.
In summer, it produces its famous silky, powder-pink flowers (often described as fluffy pom-poms) that sit above delicate, fern-like foliage. The leaves give a soft, airy texture that moves beautifully in a breeze, making it a stunning focal point for modern courtyards, Mediterranean-style planting, or a sunny lawn position.

Caragh Garden Notebook
Albizia loves warmth and drainage. Choose the sunniest, most sheltered spot you have, and avoid heavy, wet soil. Once established, it’s a brilliant tree for creating dappled shade without feeling dense or heavy.
