A medium sized tree with a stately form and rounded crown. Effective as an ornamental shade tree for lawns and front yards. Has spectacular scarlet red fall color.

Typically found in lowlands and wet woodlands but can adapt to drier soils. Long taproot enables it to have moderate drought tolerance once established. Prefers moist, well-drained soil in full sun. Female trees need a male pollinator to set fruit.
