This elegant deciduous tree boasts a graceful upright habit and is celebrated for its distinctive yellow flowers tinged with rose-pink at the base, appearing in late spring. Suitable for zones 5-8, it thrives in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil with consistent moisture and prefers temperatures ranging from 50–85°F. Its vibrant green foliage turns a soft golden-yellow in fall, extending its seasonal interest. The mature height reaches 20-25 feet with a spreading form that remains compact. Deer-resistant, it makes an excellent accent tree or focal point for smaller landscapes. The tree does not produce fruit, ensuring the flowers remain its brightest feature, and it should be planted in a location that provides full sun to partial shade for optimum growth.
