Florida Anise Tree Densely Leaved

The Florida Anise Tree (Illicium floridanum) is a native evergreen shrub that is known for its dense, leafy foliage and its anise-scented leaves. It is native to the southeastern United States and is typically found in moist, shady areas.

The Florida Anise Tree can grow to be 10-20 feet tall and 10-15 feet wide. It has a multi-stemmed, upright habit of growth and glossy, dark green leaves. The leaves are elliptic to oblong in shape and have a wavy margin. The leaves give off a strong anise-like fragrance when crushed or bruised.

In the spring, the Florida Anise Tree produces small, inconspicuous, greenish-white flowers. The flowers are followed by star-shaped fruits that ripen in the fall. The fruits are about 1 inch in diameter and turn a reddish-brown color when ripe.

The Florida Anise Tree is a relatively low-maintenance plant. It prefers full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. It is also drought-tolerant once established. The Florida Anise Tree does not require much pruning, but it can be pruned in the late winter or early spring to remove dead or damaged branches and to maintain its shape.

The Florida Anise Tree is a great choice for a variety of landscaping uses. It can be planted as a single specimen plant, in groups, or in borders. It can also be used to create a hedge or a privacy screen. The Florida Anise Tree is also a good choice for planting in wet areas, such as along streams or ponds.

Here are some tips for growing a densely leaved Florida Anise Tree:

  • Choose a planting site that receives full sun to partial shade and has moist, well-drained soil.
  • Amend the soil with compost or other organic matter before planting.
  • Water regularly, especially during the first growing season.
  • Fertilize in the spring with a balanced fertilizer.
  • Mulch around the base of the tree to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
  • Prune in the late winter or early spring to remove dead or damaged branches and to maintain the shape.

With proper care, a Florida Anise Tree can thrive for many years and add beauty and fragrance to your landscape.

Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.

We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.

Note
Please note that the plant will be shipped in its pot, securely fastened with multiple layers of clear tape to prevent any shifting or damage during transit. This ensures that the plant arrives to you with minimal damage, safely and securely. We have been employing this method for shipping plants for several years, occasionally using smaller pots for added safety and convenience during transit. It's important to understand that many plants enter a dormant state during the fall and winter months, resulting in the loss of most leaves and appearing dry or lifeless. This is a natural process, and come springtime, they will begin to regrow and thrive once again. Please be aware that due to regulations set by the Department of Agriculture, there are certain plants and sizes that we are unable to ship to California. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
