Looking for a unique tree for your garden? Look no further than Lomatia hirsuta, also known as radal. This evergreen tree native to Argentina, Chile, and Peru can reach up to 15 meters in height and 80 centimeters in diameter. Its light-grey bark with longitudinal fissures gives it a distinctive look, while its alternate ovate leaves (which are used for dyeing wood brown) add to its beauty. The flowers, which are greenish-yellow in color and covered in a rusty red, are arranged in axillary clustered inflorescences, while the fruit is a greyish-black follicle almost woody and oval-oblong shaped. Radal trees grow on a variety of soils and humidities, making them adaptable to different environments. In addition to being a beautiful addition to any garden, radal trees have been planted in Spain and as far north as Scotland.
