Staphylea pinnata is a medium sized shrub with coconut scented, white flowers in May, followed by paper like, inflated fruit pods (hence the name). At first the fruit pods have a purple hue which then gradually fades to a hay, brown colour in the Autumn. The Common Bladdernut is easy to grow (even in a pot), drought tolerant and it won't grow bigger than 3m in height.
- We have excellent quality, 15cm tall starter plants on offer.
