Stately, long-lived deciduous tree that thrives in dry, rocky, or well-drained soils and is highly drought-tolerant once established. The deeply furrowed bark provides winter interest, and its glossy, serrated leaves turn yellow to brown in the fall. It is an excellent choice for naturalized landscapes, wildlife gardens, and large spaces.
