Tamarix tetrandra

Tamarix tetrandra is a species of flowering plant in the family Tamaricaceae, native to south eastern Europe, Turkey, Bulgaria and Crimea. Growing to 3 m (10 ft) tall and broad, it is a small deciduous tree with almost black arching branches, and tiny scale-like leaves arranged along the branches. Racemes of pale pink flowers are produced in late spring.

The binomial Tamarix tetrandra means "four-stamen tamarisk".

This plant is particularly associated with temperate coastal areas, but can also be grown inland in a sunny position with protection from winter winds. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
