At first glance, the Greek Strawberry Tree is elegant and understated.
But look closer, and the bark begins to peel — revealing warm tones of cinnamon, copper, and soft green beneath. Over time, the trunk becomes a living surface of shifting colour.
In spring, delicate white flowers appear, followed by small red fruits that add quiet interest in autumn.
This is not a showy tree.
It’s one you grow into — and notice more each year.
Height at supply: 125–150cm
Pot size: 20L (C20)
Type: Evergreen tree
Sheltered, sunny gardens
Architectural or Mediterranean planting
Adding winter interest through bark
Smaller spaces needing structure without heaviness
Evergreen and hardy in milder UK areas. Needs good drainage and a sheltered position, especially when young.
Best in the sun, where the bark colour develops fully.
