However its real knock out feature is the impact of autumn foliage, which linger late into the season, developing from warm yellows and oranges on to fire red.
Cultivation tips: This medium sized deciduous tree can get to a good size so allow it plenty of space. It likes the rare combination of a moist acid soil, growing best in a sheltered location in full sun to part shade, but suitable for planting within woodland. grows to up to 12m by 10m plus.
