Description

This deciduous tree grows to 30' tall and 30' wide. Leaves have 10-16 red leaflets that mature to a green color, only to change again to red, orange, and yellow in the fall. It is drought and cold tolerant but needs good drainage. This tree makes a great shade tree but may cause weak allergenic reactions for some people. Flowers are insignificant.

Water Saving Tip:

As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.

Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
