View prices and availability
Medium-size tree with a regular broad conical to round crown. With its height of around 15 m, significantly larger than ‘Summer Veil’. The bark of the trunk and the heavy main branches is black-brown and roughly grooved with long bark plates. The young twigs are grey and felt-like. The leaves are elongated to oval with deeply dissected lobes. They are dissected up to five-sixths of the leaf blade, but not up to the midrib as is the case with ‘Summer Veil’. The lobes are also not as narrow and less deeply serrated. In summer the leaf is dark green, turning dark yellow in autumn. The deeply lobed leaves and regular crown give the tree a striking texture. The acorns are semi-enclosed by the cupule that is densely covered with long, narrow grey-haired scales with reflexed tips. A good, healthy tree.
