Izu Tree

  • Growth size: between 3 and 10 feet tall by 4 to 8 feet wide
  • Growing requirements: easily tolerates different types of soils and conditions; needs full sun to partial shade.

Also known by its Latin name, Distylium, this fast-growing shrub can sometimes be mistaken for a tree, and it has become more and more popular in the last decades.

What attracts people to the izu tree is the fact that it is highly adaptable and easy to care for. These shrubs can easily handle both wet and dry soils (make sure the soil is never flooded), and they do not require only full sun or shade.

This can mean that you can place it almost anywhere in your house as long as it is going to receive at least partial sunlight, and you will not have to worry about it dying due to light conditions.

What’s more, the leaves are always a pleasure to see since they can range in color from a lustrous dark green to a gorgeous blue-green shade, with the leaves being a bit narrower than what we are used to.
