Description
Lang Jujube is a striking ornamental tree that thrives in Massachusetts, offering both beauty and delicious fruit. Its pendulous branches showcase shiny green leaves, while subtle fragrant white flowers bloom in early summer. By late summer, the tree produces abundant dark brown drupes with brick red overtones, which start crisp and sweet before ripening into a chewy, candy-like treat.
This hardy tree is best planted away from flowerbeds due to its tendency to sucker aggressively. While its fruit is highly valued, it can be messy if left to drop on lawns or walkways. Lang Jujube is a resilient and attractive addition to Massachusetts gardens, offering ornamental charm and edible rewards.
