About This Plant
Vitex × 'Bailtexone' Flip Side (Chaste Tree), 'Bailtexone' is valued in the landscape for character, form, and seasonal interest.
Chastetree (Vitex agnus-castus) , large multi-stem shrub or small tree with palmate aromatic foliage and lavender-blue late-summer flower spikes that pollinators love. Mediterranean-character specimen.
Full sun suits this species. Plant in well-drained; tolerates lean conditions soil. Hardy USDA Zone 6 to 9. Drought-tolerant once established. Cut back hard in late winter for best flower display. Generally trouble-free.
For a Pacific Northwest native counterpart in scale and bloom, consider Amelanchier alnifolia (Saskatoon / Western Serviceberry) for white spring flowers and edible blue berries, or Cornus nuttallii (Pacific Dogwood) for show-stopping spring bracts in light shade.
