Pink Pinnacle Dwarf Chaste Tree (Vitex Agnus-castus) – 1 Gallon Pot

Developed by the University of Georgia to be a perfect fit for smaller garden spaces, ‘Pink Pinnacle’ is a dwarf Chaste Tree that grows maybe a third the size of the species. Very well behaved, this cutie forms a rounded mound to about 6 feet tall and equally as wide with stems topped in abundant panicles of fragrant, nectar-rich, pink flowers in waves throughout the summer months. The hummingbirds, butterflies and bees will thank you for planting this one. Refined, sage-scented, gray-green leaves resemble Japanese maple leaves adding a delicate texture, pleasing color, and sensory appeal in the landscape. Its smaller stature is well suited for smaller garden spaces and pots, planters and other containers.

Note:  The Pink Pinnacle Chaste Tree is cold hardy in USDA Zones 5a-9b. In USDA Zones 5 and 6  young plants might die back to the ground during an unusually cold winter. If so, cut the plant back to the ground like you would a butterfly bush and it will quickly regrow to a a shrub 4 to 5 feet tall and wide.
