Form and Flower
Small deciduous tree, generally upright and usually taller than wide with moderate growth rate. The 10" long creamy white conical panicles appear in May-June and are highlighted with hints of pink and yellow.

Extraordinarily fine foliage type. Green leaves are very slender and deeply incised. So much so that some are left with a wisp of of a leaf surrounding the mid rib. The fall color is yellow, not spectacular, but not grocery bag brown like some of the other Horse Chestnut forms.
