About this collection
Subtropical Landscaping Trees
Subtropical is the widest workable band in this catalogue and covers most Gulf inland sites, the Australian east coast and southern China. Ficus and Brachychiton give the structure, Citrus, Plumeria, Bauhinia and Tabebuia the ornament, and Podocarpus, Magnolia and Terminalia the evergreen framework.
The risk in this band is the occasional cold night rather than the average winter, so check the record minimum at the destination and not the seasonal mean. Species that read as safe on averages are the ones lost in an unusual year. For genuinely humid sites see trees for tropical climates, and to test a species against a specific destination use the destination matcher.
