DESCRIPTION
The Persian Silk Plant (Albizia julibrissin), also known as the Silk Tree, is a stunning ornamental tree native to Asia, stretching from Iran to Japan. This plant belongs to the Fabaceae family and is celebrated for its delicate, fern-like leaves and fragrant, pink, silky flowers that bloom in clusters, adding a tropical flair to any garden. Ideal for sunny locations, the Persian Silk Plant requires full sun to partial shade, needing at least 6-8 hours of sunlight each day. In the warm, humid climate of Singapore, it thrives with moderate watering about 2-3 times a week, provided the soil is well-draining to avoid waterlogged roots. The plant is relatively easy to care for, making it suitable for both novice and experienced gardeners. It has air-purifying qualities, contributing to cleaner indoor air by absorbing pollutants. Additionally, it is generally non-toxic to pets, although it’s always a good idea to prevent pets from chewing on plants. The Persian Silk Plant enjoys regular pruning to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. It dislikes overly wet conditions and poor drainage, which can lead to root rot. With its eye-catching flowers and ease of care, the Persian Silk Plant is a delightful addition to any landscape or garden.
Important to know: As plants are natural products, form, pattern and colour will vary.
