The Desert Willow is such a wonderful tree that not only needs minimal care but also enhances the beauty of southwestern landscapes all year long. Its unique architectural silhouette is charming in winter, even when it’s bare. Throughout the year, its abundance of fragrant, orchid-like flowers attracts delightful hummingbirds and butterflies, adding to the joy of the garden.
Meet ‘Bubba,’ a truly special cultivar known for its strength and resilience! It happily thrives in high heat, drought, and even the cold, with roots that spread quickly. Those broad, green leaves give it a fuller, more vibrant look compared to other desert willow cultivars. Despite its long blooming season, ‘Bubba’ keeps things neat by producing fewer seed pods than other varieties.
