Jujube Jujube Jujubes are very ornamental with an upright habit, growing 15-25'.
Leaves turn yellow in fall.
Branches are spiny, slender, gnarled and zigzagged. They tend to droop due to the burden of fruit. These drooping branches add greatly to the tree's character. Small, yellowish green to white flowers appear in clusters in late spring. This late flowering time allows jujube to avoid injury from all but the latest frosts.
