This beautiful California native should be in more gardens. The young branches are reddish and the interesting bark peels off in long strips. The Catalina Ironwood has umbrella shaped creamy flower clusters that age to a burnt umber. The dark green, deeply toothed leaves provide a unique texture that contrasts with other trees and shrubs. These trees can withstand the sandy soil, salt air and winds of Marina and still look good.
