A superb male clone making a narrowly compact crown at maturity.

Raised as a seedling in Dortmund Botanic Garden in 1930 by the late Dr G Krussmann.

Dramatic yellow autumn colour is another striking feature of this great urban clone that requires little maintenance once planted so long as its well defined leader is left uninterrupted.

We will have this in saleable production by 2013/14.

Mature height: 15-20m
