The word Nyssa means Water Nymph which will give you a strong indication that this deciduous tree loves to grow in moist conditions. Ideal for pond side or swamp planting. Slow growing and shy to leaf in spring but very graceful once the leaves emerge. Simply stunning autumn colour. Est.10yr.growth.
