Name that tree
Could it have been some type of Vitex? These grow mostly in moist and
shaded areas in the Southeast, along rivers and streams. There are about 16 types (from what I can find out about them) and range from bush size to tree size with clusters of fruits (berries?) that sort of resemble pecans. Sometimes the flowers are white. Smell great. Common name is Lilac Chaste Tree. Kim "Bill Oliver" wrote in message ... My wife and I were driving from North Carolina to Georgia recently. As we passed through the NC mountains, we noticed that the back roads were lined by trees that had large light purple/lavender blooms that looked kind of like wisteria. We were not aware of wisteria *trees* in that part of the country. We love the dogwoods by the roads where we live, but were entranced by these trees. Could anybody from that part of the country tell us what is blooming up there? billo |
