Alnus Cordata Nz

Alnus cordata

Alnus cordata, commonly known as the Italian Alder, is a deciduous tree that features glossy, bright green leaves. As autumn progresses the leaves turn brown but unlike most other deciduous plants the dead leaves are retained on the tree well into winter which creates an interesting feature. It grows with a pyramidal shape to eventually reach 25 m with a spread of 8 m. Alnus cordata is a versatile and attractive tree that is great for challenging locations where it is often trimmed into a hedge, used for screening, planted for shelter, or simply grown as a specimen.
