Description
The ‘Digitata’ grows to be a large tree that will become a true garden focal point. The large leaves are deeply cut and dark green in colour with serrated edges and these are accompanied by the fluffy spherical flowers in spring. Another interesting feature of this tree comes with the clusters of spherical burr-like fruits that appear in autumn. Like the popular London plane tree, the Oriental plane also has the distinctive flaking bark when mature. This tree is great for parkland planting or as an architectural tree in a large garden.
