A reliable performer in Arizona landscapes, the Arizona rosewood is a hardy evergreen shrub or small tree well-suited to arid conditions. Native to Arizona’s Madrean Sky Islands and surrounding desert regions, it offers both beauty and durability for low-water landscapes. The species features dense clusters of white spring blooms and dark brown, red-streaked wood that is extremely hard and heavy—hence its common name “rosewood.” When trained as a single-trunk tree, it can reach about 15 feet, making it a versatile option for use as a specimen, hedge, or screen. In addition to its ornamental value, Arizona rosewood supports local ecology as a larval host for the two-tailed swallowtail butterfly, Arizona’s state butterfly—a reminder that even drought-tolerant installations can enhance biodiversity. |
