More Information
- Year Recognized: 2025
- Current condition: Good
- Property Type: Private
- Ecological Value: The showy yellow leaves drop rapidly in fall. This tree is tolerant of drought, heat, air pollution, and is moderately salt tolerant. Resistant to browsing by deer. This easy to transplant tree makes an excellent choice for urban settings.
This tree’s pyramidal shape and uniquely fan-shaped leaves are the main attractions, even more so in autumn, when the leaves turn golden yellow. Soon afterward, the ground below the trees is carpeted with golden leaves.
