Read detailed description :

Beautiful tree, perfect for row or shade plantations. It has an orange foliage from late summer to autumn. It grows fast and tolerates pretty well dry conditions. Its broad branches spread out to make a rounded crown. Beautiful orange bark that peels off in plates with age. Slightly downy shoots and rather thin dark green leaves.
