It features long, weeping branches with a wide canopy and mottled bark with a peeling effect. This fast-growing tree reaches 40-50 feet tall and 30-40 feet wide, thriving in USDA hardiness zones 6-10. It prefers moist, well-draining soil and full sun to light shade, offering pest and disease resistance along with drought tolerance once established.
