Read detailed description :

Fast-growing tree with a round crown. The yellow-brown branches bear a dark-green evergreen foliage that turns nicely gold in autumn. The thin, oval and irregularly toothed leaves measure 6 to 20 cm long. The inconspicuous green flowering in April is followed by withe, pink or purple-violet fruits of 1 to 2 cm long. The sweet and edible fruits are mature in July-August. Easy to grow, it tolerates any drained soils that is not too rich or moist.
