Chinese fringetree can be distinguished by its white fringe-like blossoms which densely cover the tree in early spring. It features a rounded crown of glossy, dark green leaves and may reach a height of about 20 feet (6 meters) with an equivalent spread. Post-bloom, female plants produce blue-black fruits. Autumn transitions the foliage color to a golden hue. Its smooth gray bark, which adds winter interest, may flake off in older specimens, revealing a textured underlayer.
