This tree is large and deciduous. It can reach a height of 80' and it is a fast grower. It prefers well drained soils and does not like to be overwatered. It makes for a wonderful shade tree. Leaves are dark green in summer and yellow/green in autumn. Fruits are black and appear in autumn. It is resistant to drought and is tolerant of urban conditions.
