Read detailed description :

A remarkable very narrow tree ! Lovely yellow and red colours in autumn. Can grow to over 10m in age, with a width of only 1-2m. Ideal for small spaces, in rows, to punctuate a landscape, or mark a passageway. Eyes are drawn to it and it will make a place welcoming. The mother plant, appearing near a railway, was destroyed by vandals, though fortuneately, the plant had been already mutiplied.
