The Jujube tree ( Ziziphus zizyphus ) is also known as the Chinese date. It is a smaller tree or shrub reaching 15’ – 20’ tall and 10’ – 15’    wide.    With regular water it can add 2’ – 3’ of growth annually. L eaves  are a glossy-green so it makes a very beautiful canopy. Some varieties have 1 inch spines on their branches. The Jujube tree produces a small fruit that can be round to oblong or egg shaped and at maturity, are brown skinned and look like little apples. Fruits may be eaten at this time and are similar to an apple but less sweet and juicy. After the season’s first frosts the fruits shrivel and turn a darker reddish brown. The shriveled fruits are typically sweeter and chewier, resembling “dates”. Jujube fruits can persist on trees into the winter months as seen in the photo below after a snowstorm.

The leaves are used to flavor foods like breads, stuffings, and meats. According to legend, the Virgin Mary is said to have spread a blue cloak over a white-blossomed rosemary plant when she was resting, and the flowers turned blue.

We propagate native cacti for your low water landscape areas! The following is a list of the native cacti we grow: Black-Spined Prickly Pear Century Plant (NM Agave) Club Cholla Desert Christmas Cholla Engleman Prickly Pear Lecheguilla Agave Red Yucca Soaptree Yucca Sotol Spineless Prickly Pear Tree Cholla Yellow Flowering Yucca These cacti thrive in full sun with only occasional watering. They are winter hardy to our area. As long as they are planted in the ground and not left in small containers above ground they do very well. A problem can arise if they are left in small containers above ground during winter. This can happen if we experience a particularly cold winter. Containerized cacti left above ground during winter can experience root damage or death. This can occur if the container freezes solid. This is something we have learned over the years and so we bring all of our containerized cacti into an unheated greenhouse during winter. T...
