A superior selection that shows improved hardiness and more uniform growth than the species with tight upright branching and a strong central leader. Glossy green leaves in summer turn a fiery orange-red in fall. Female selection, so may produce small black berries, which are adored by birds. Requires acidic soils and will not thrive in alkaline conditions.
