Gleditsia Triacanthos F. Inermis Sunburst | 12L Pot

Magnificent medium sized thornless tree. Position: full sun Soil: all well-drained soils Rate of growth: fast Flowering period: March to May Hardiness: fully hardy A fast-growing tree with golden yellow, spring foliage which darkens to pale green but then turns a uniform butter-yellow in autumn. It is a thornless variety that is tough enough to be planted in city gardens as it is quite tolerant of pollution. ‘Sunburst’ will eventually grow into a large tree, though not to the height expected of a single-stemmed form. Garden care: Requires minimal pruning. Remove any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter. When planting incorporate lots of well-rotted garden compost in the planting hole and stake firmly.
