View prices and availability
Medium-size tree with a straight, upright trunk and a wide ovoid, later often wide conical, crown, to about 15 m. The trunk develops a rough, corky bark even at a young age. The broad obovate leaf has soft hairs and a double serrated margin. It is purplish green in summer. The young shoots are deep purplish red, contrasting well with the summer leaf. This produces an almost two-toned effect. The graceful male catkins and inconspicuous female blossoms can be followed by edible nuts. The nuts are grouped in red, irregularly shaped, glandular clusters. Has a deep root system. It is a very strong, drought-resistant tree with little susceptibility to disease. Paved surfaces are tolerated well too.
