Pistacia Chinensis (Chinese Pistachio) is a deciduous tree known for its vibrant autumn colour and small, attractive fruit. Native to China, this tree is highly valued for its resilience, adaptable to a range of soil types, and drought-tolerant once established. It produces clusters of small, green flowers in spring, which later develop into reddish fruits that attract birds. The tree’s standout feature is its stunning red and orange foliage in the autumn months, making it an excellent choice for seasonal interest in landscapes.
Chinese Pistachio trees are often used as ornamental street trees or for creating shade in large gardens. Their sturdy structure and low-maintenance care requirements make them a reliable option for urban environments and residential landscapes.
