from $12.00

Coming Soon!

Deciduous hardwood tree; medium growth rate; 60-80ft tall on average, but can grow up to 130ft in forests
Monoecious—both male and female flowers form on the same tree; spiky balls, containing 10-50 seeds each, drop from the tree in autumn; foliage becomes a vibrant blend of yellow, orange and red in fall
Its ridged, brown bark, when peeled back, releases a resinous, sweet-smelling sap; beavers occasionally use wood and branches for food and construction
Seeds are sought after by squirrels, chipmunks, and birds including mourning doves, chickadees, goldfinches, redpolls, and sparrows
Leaves eaten by the caterpillars of the Imperial Moth, Royal Walnut Moth, Luna Moth, and Large Paectes
