It displays fragrant yellow flowers in summer with large, dark green foliage that turns yellow in the fall. It prefers moist, fertile, deep soils and tolerant of difficult, dry or heavy soils. It needs full sun, but will tolerate some shade. It is best used for farmstead windbreaks, and park trees in open landscape areas because of its large size and spreading root system. ... additional info
