Named for its unique fan-shaped green leaves that turn brilliant golden-yellow in autumn and persist for several weeks. When the leaves drop, they drop rapidly, forming a golden carpet around the tree. It is spectacular when backlit by early morning or late afternoon sun. This air pollution-tolerant tree performs well in compacted and alkaline soils, and is highly resistant to insect feeding and disease.
