A large tree prefers cool soil. Great as the specimen tree. Understock for any of the cultivars. Air pollution tolerant. Female trees bear plum like yellow fruit at about 30 yrs of age,very foul smelling.
Fruits pink in early fall.
Creamy white flowers after the leaves. Perhaps its showiest time is fall when they are full of 4-6 inches pink cylindrical fruits which are colorful for more than a month. Female trees have lots of clusters of black .5 inches fruit. Good understock for male clones. Rich yellow autumn foliage.
