Description
A deciduous, third-sized tree with dense, globular crown. Its high ornamental value is attributed to the luxuriant and elegant spring flowering, followed by small, decorative fruits (false fruits), as well as to the autumn foliage full of lustrous hues. Versatile and highly rustic, it is suitable for gardens and terraces as well as parks and urban green areas, either as a single specimen or in groups or rows.
