A deciduous shade tree known for its deep burgundy-red foliage that holds colour well throughout the growing season. New leaves emerge bright red in spring and mature to a rich, dark red-purple in summer, adding strong colour contrast in the landscape.
This tree has a dense, rounded canopy and is commonly used as a specimen, street tree, or shade tree. It performs best in full sun and adapts to a range of soil conditions, though good drainage is preferred.
