Phellodendron amurense

Cultivation
Phellodendron amurense is a very cold-hardy plant, being able to tolerate temperatures down to around -30°c or more when fully dormant. The young growth is much more tender, however, and is liable to damage from late spring frosts. The plant grows best in areas with long hot summers, which allow it to fully ripen its wood and make it more tolerant of winter cold.
