Deciduous, vase shaped tree
growing to around 5 m high.
This hybrid is sterile, so does
not produce fruit. It has slender,
arching branches, double
mauve-pink flowers in spring
and reddish-purple leaves which
turn purplish-green in summer.
It prefers full-sun in well-drained
soils. This frost tolerant species is
commonly used as a street tree.
