A relatively slow-growing, deciduous, broad weeping tree that can eventually grow to 5 to 7 m tall. The tree produces upwardly winding main branches and heavily drooping lateral branches. Like the species the twigs are brownish red. The quite thick mature bark is grey-brown to reddish brown, later scaling. The soft needles are in clusters of 40 - 50 on short shoots along the older branches. On (year-old) long shoots, they stand alone. They are 2 to 3.5 cm and dark green. In autumn, they turn golden yellow before falling off. It is not easy to find a place for this particularly graceful cultivar because if its broad, weeping growth habit. The tree is best suited to parks and large gardens. Grows on any soil except acidic.
