Halesia, or Silverbell, is a small genus of five species (H. carolina, H. diptera, H. macgregorii, H. tetraptera, and H. monticola) of large, deciduous shrubs or small trees with grey bark, and simple, ovate, green leaves, that turn yellow in autumn and fall off early. Attractive, hanging, bell-shaped, white to pale pink flowers grow in clusters and bloom in spring. Flowers are followed by four-winged (or two-winged), nut-like fruits in autumn and often remain on branches long into winter. Attractive to bees and squirrels. Halesia grows best in average, organically rich, slightly acidic, lime-free, moist but well-drained soils. It prefers partial shade, but tolerates full sun. Doesn’t have any serious pest or disease problems. Low maintenance plant, no routine pruning necessary. Halesia is a wonderful shrub or small tree perfect as an understory plant, for shrub borders, stream banks, or woodland gardens. Great as a specimen plant for the lawn.
