Indian mast tree Monoon longifolium

[happypalms]

The Indian mast tree with a synonym name of polyalthia longifolia. A very tall upright thin pencil like tree. I have seen them growing in India under very tough conditions and a lot of pollution so one tough tree once established. A very beautiful tree with predictable growth patterns making a great landscape specimen tree.The Ashoka tree well worth growing. Taking very hot conditions and cool temperatures.

Not all of them grow like Italian cypress. Very cool trees but a little frost tender.
