Thriving on most free draining soils the white flowers in spring are more akin to Bird Cherry than anything else and their effect is lovely against a clear blue sky.
Stunning in winter with its smoothly polished, golden stems, this cultivar of medium height and rounded form is early into leaf in spring.
It is a stout and vigorous grower tolerating the harsher aspects of our urban environments.
I have seen this clone planted as a street tree in Portsmouth and it makes a fantastically stocky tree with a rounded crown as it drifts into maturity.
Mature height: 5-10m
