Dove tree consists of deciduous trees known for their distinctive, showy bracts. Adaptable to various environments, dove tree requires well-drained fertile soils, partial shade to full sun, and moderate watering to avoid soggy conditions. Dove tree is vulnerable to root rot, canker, and occasional insect pests. Seasonally, dove tree benefits from mulching in winter for root protection, reduced watering in dormant periods, and clearance of debris to prevent disease.
