General Notes

Desert Willow is an unusual small flowering desert accent tree, especially useful in riparian or native garden settings. It is usually multi-trunked or low-branching. It blooms best in full sun, becoming taller and less full in half shade. It is very drought tolerant, with only occasional deep watering to the roots. It is susceptible to root rot if drainage is poor. It generally remains below 25' in height. Has Fragrant Flower. SelecTree lists no cultivars of linearis.
A Chilopsis linearis in Porterville is registered as a California Big Tree. It measures 40 feet high, with a trunk circumference of 71 inches and a crown spread of 36 feet for a total of 120 points.
