  • First of the Palo Verde species to bloom in the spring
  • Wide spreading tree with a round shaped crown and a naturally low branching habit.
  • Faster grower especially for a Palo Verde species
  • The trunk and branches are blue green in color and the trunk will turn gray and rougher in appearance with maturity.
This is the classic version of the Palo Verde that has been growing in the Southwest for centuries. The Blue Palo Verde is an excellent shade providing tree, and very suitable to its native desert environment.  Known for its early arrival of bright golden yellow flowers, the Palo Verde is among the most popular trees used in Sonoran landscapes.  

The vivid colors of this tree offer landscapers several ways to embellish their style as the green trunks show well with spotlights at night and stand out very well on their own during the day. The Blue Palo Verde is a highly durable specimen for desert planting due to its low water requirements and high soil tolerance. There is a reason this tree has thrived in the desert for hundreds of years!

Keep all of your trees healthy with regular applications of Moon Dust fertilizer and Supercharged Moon Juice for maximum performance.
