Chinese Hackberry

A hardy, fast-growing deciduous tree with a rounded crown and attractive textured bark, Celtis sinensis is an excellent option for shade and urban planting.

It is highly wind-resistant, making it a great choice for exposed areas, and it adapts well to a wide range of soil types.

This tree can be used for screening while young but eventually develops into a large tree with dappled shade.

It is more frost-tolerant than its African counterpart and can withstand moderate coastal exposure, though it thrives best inland.

It produces small, berry-like fruits that attract birds. A fantastic option for large spaces, avenue planting, or as a feature tree.
