Gleditsia triacanthos 'Moraine' Gleditsia triacanthos 'Moraine'

This male clone from G. triacanthos f. inermis has proven to be a good avenue tree over the years. It is a rapidly growing, nearly spineless cultivar with an irregular, spreading, oval and open crown. It attains a height of 15 - 20 m and a spread of circa 10 m, so that the tree takes up a lot of space. A disadvantage is that it is susceptible to wind due to its spreading branches. Pruning back of twigs that have grown too long is to be recommended. The grey bark has shallow fissures. The large, compound leaf unfolds late. Young twigs and young foliage are red brown. In autumn the leaf turns to golden yellow. The single leaflets are circa 3 cm. This male clone does not bear pods. Winter hardiness zone: 5a
