General Comments:
Red/orange fall color is excellent. Leaves have three separate shapes: ovoid, tri-lobed, or mitten-shaped (left or right). Mature trees tend to have fewer lobed leaves.
Subject to laurel wilt disease. Please be careful not to move firewood or dead wood around. Best not planted in areas where laurel wilt is present.
