Description

Experience the graceful, willow-like beauty without the invasive roots. The Green Showers Mayten Tree is a elegant, airy evergreen that brings soft, flowing movement to the landscape. Its long, slender branches drip with a cascade of tiny, glossy green leaves, creating a shimmering, fountain-like effect. Perfect as a lawn specimen, near water features, or pruned into a graceful arch, this Chilean native is exceptionally well-behaved, drought-tolerant, and adaptable. It offers the romantic appeal of a weeping willow but with a non-invasive root system safe for patios and foundations.

• Weeping Willow-Like Elegance: Features long, pendulous branches densely covered with small, lance-shaped, glossy green leaves that flutter in the breeze.
• Well-Behaved Root System: Unlike true willows, it has a non-invasive root system, making it safe to plant near hardscapes, patios, and water lines.
• Drought Tolerant & Adaptable: Once established, it is highly water-wise and tolerant of various soils, thriving in Bay Area’s Mediterranean climate.
• Excellent Specimen Tree: A superb lawn focal point, shade tree, or reflective accent near ponds. Can be pruned to enhance its weeping form or create arbors.
• Evergreen & Airy: Provides year-round, dappled shade and visual interest without creating a heavy, dark canopy.
