Read detailed description :

Very beautiful red autumn colouring. Outstanding cinnamon-brown bark tinged with orange and that peels off like the one of birches. It gives a very decorative appearance in all seasons. Healthy and hardy plant that resists to pollution. Grows in any normal drained soils. Slightly tolerates calcareous conditions.
