Naturally upright tree with soft green leaves that turn copper in the fall. Mature size is 25 to 30 feet tall by only 5 to 10 feet wide. Has non-aggressive root system with no surface roots or knees.

For new plantings, dig a hole one and a half times wider than the plant's container; place plant in hole, keeping the top of the root ball ground level; and back fill with dirt. Water thoroughly and then mulch around the base to conserve moisture and reduce weeds. New plantings require more frequent watering than established plants. Wind, temperature and soil are factors to consider in watering. Feed plants in early spring and again in early fall with an all-purpose fertilizer, following label instructions.
