Best Flowering Tree To Plant In Colorado
It is quite possible that you have an abundance of trees and plants that are suited to your area, but some of them won’t last very long in your area. In Denver, for example, droughts have historically caused a lot of problems. Therefore, some trees won’t grow in certain parts of Denver because of the drought conditions. The best tree for your needs should be chosen carefully, so we put together a list so that you can make things easier. Below you will find a list of some of the best flowering trees that are perfect for the climate you live in.
A consultant from Tagawa Gardens helped me determine which trees would be suitable to grow in the Front Range. As a result of their assistance, I have compiled a list of five trees that would be perfect for the Front Range. As part of my nursery’s nomination process, I requested that our staff nominate their favorite trees. These five trees were all highly rated by all of our staff.

Despite the fact that the tree gets its name from the fact that its branches are fringed with white fur, you may also hear it referred to as a “Grancy Graybeard” or a “Man Beard” tree.

These trees produce fruit clusters up to an inch in diameter, and the flowers of the plant look like olives in shape. At the end of the summer, the flowers will turn a dark navy blue color.

Ann Magnolia
There are a number of Magnolia cultivars to choose from, but one of the most popular is Ann Magnolia (Magnolia x Ann’), the Magnolia which is often referred to as the “Queen of Magnolias”. Ann Magnolia has been growing in our landscapes for quite some time, and it’s no wonder why.
Ann is such an appealing addition to your yard that it deserves to be the center of attention in your backyard, a place to hide from prying eyes in your side yard, or a place to make a bold, beautiful statement in your front yard.
This compact, deciduous shrub works beautifully as a privacy screen, or you can train it to grow into a small tree to serve as a focal point near your front door or patio. This plant can be used in many ways in today’s smaller lots.
In contrast to other Magnolias, Ann blooms at about the same time as other species, but the flowers are beautiful and very fragrant. Although mid-spring cold snaps have the potential to damage the buds of some early spring bloomers, Ann gives you an extra period of time to forgive any damage.
Ann’s plant has many giant, fuchsia-colored, goblet-shaped blossoms which start off looking like tapered tulips. Upon opening up, the buds grow 7 to 9 inches long before turning into a tender white. You’ll be glad you waited. There are so many big, giant, fuchsia-colored blossoms on Ann’s plant that each branch tip has a tapered look.

If the weather remains cool during the blooming of the Ann’s Flowers, the flowers will last for much longer. The flower display is spectacular, hence make sure you place it where you can view it from indoors.
