A reasonably vigorously growing tree with a straight trunk and beautiful, horizontal branching pattern. The crown has a regular, broad conical shape, later round. The lower branches may sag somewhat after time. The young twigs are olive coloured. The older branches and bark are grey. The bark is smooth to shallow grooved. The leaf is 7 to 15 cm long, sometimes the same width and somewhat variable in shape. It is roughly lobed to around halfway along the leaf blade, with 2 to 4 sharply serrated lobes. It is glossy dark green, turning deep red every autumn. The tree holds on to its foliage in autumn longer than the species. Grows in almost any soil, tolerates air pollution and wet soil.
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2024.
