Snowcone Japanese Snowbell - Styrax japonicus ‘Snowcone’
The Japanese snowbell hangs its flowers below the branches rather than above them, so the display is best seen from underneath or from a path running alongside. ‘Snowcone’ is a selected form of Styrax japonicus chosen for an even, conical crown and tidier branching than seedling trees. From late spring the horizontal limbs are strung with small white bells on fine stalks.
Why Snowcone Snowbell
Uniform Crown: Broadly conical and symmetrical without staking or corrective pruning, useful where trees are repeated.
Flowering: Hundreds of pendulous white bells, lightly fragrant, from late spring into early summer.
Scale: Tops out around 6 to 8m, small enough for suburban gardens and enclosed courtyards.
Branch Structure: Distinctly layered horizontal limbs give the tree real presence in winter.
Light Canopy: Open crown lets shade tolerant planting continue right up to the trunk.
Ideal Applications
Small garden feature: A single tree gives structure without dominating a modest space.
Beside a path or seat: Positioned so the hanging flowers are viewed from below, which is how they read best.
Entry courtyard: Modest root system and clean habit suit a paved or semi enclosed setting.
Woodland style bed: Underplanted with hellebores, hydrangeas and ferns in a sheltered garden.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 3-4m
Spacing (feature/avenue): 5-6m
Best Planting Season: Autumn or early spring
Soil & Drainage: Moist, humus rich, well drained and slightly acidic soil, disliking lime, drying out and waterlogging alike
Establishment Care: Water weekly through the first three summers and never let the root zone dry hard, as leaf scorch follows quickly. Mulch 75mm deep with composted bark and shelter the tree from hot dry northerly wind.
