Comments:
This hybrid was selected by J. Frank Schmidt & Son Nursery for its narrow, upright habit producing an almost perfect shaped crown without any pruning. Exceptional dark green leaves are highly resistant to powdery mildew. Noted for its pumpkin-yellow fall color, would make a great specimen or tree for areas with limited space. Expect 45' tall and 10' wide after many years.
