This deciduous tree showcases a rounded habit and achieves a mature height of 30 to 40 feet with a spreading canopy. Hardy in zones 5 through 9, this species thrives in moderate climates with temperatures ranging from 50°F to 80°F. In fall, its pinnate leaves turn a striking yellow, adding ornamental value to landscapes. Summer brings clusters of bright yellow flowers, followed by unique lantern-shaped fruit that can persist into winter. It’s adaptable to various soil types but prefers well-drained locations, tolerating clay or sandy soils. The tree presents moderate deer resistance and is perfect for urban settings due to its tolerance to pollution and drought once established. With attractive blooms and fall interest, it makes an excellent choice for gardens and streetscapes alike.
