Shade - Mastic

Mastic trees are durable, evergreen small accent trees.  Slow growing typically with multiple trunks they can form dense canopy trees. They have small, leathery oval leaves with a deep, dark green color. They have a dense branch structure but the branches are forgiving and fairly flexible. Mastics require average water and little maintenance. Training them to single trunk tree form takes time and a bit of effort but it can be done. No pest or disease issues to be weary of.
