This tree may be grown as a shrub because it seldom attains a large size. Because of this, it may be too small for many large street tree locations. It is definitely too small in this particular site where the houses have a deep setback. The foliage is excellent and dark green through the summer months. The attractive white flower clusters that appear in June add to the beauty of the plant .

No original address was given. The planting width of the tree lawn here is 7'. The trees are unattractive because they are growing so slowly that the seed heads are conspicuous for a number of years. The net result is young trees have a dead haze of old fruit over the entire canopy. They have certainly remained within the bounds of the site. Little or no sidewalk damage was present.
