May 21 to 27, 2017 – Chionanthus virginicus

Chionanthus virginicus, commonly called fringetree, is a deciduous, small tree with a spreading, rounded habit. The common name refers to the fragrant, spring-blooming flowers which feature airy clusters of fringe-like, creamy white petals.

This tree can be enjoyed on the Lumberton Campus near the Community Building and in various locations on the Medford Campus. In particular the tree in Court 23 is quite a show and worth a trip to visit both for the visual as well as the fragrance.
