View prices and availability
A capriciously growing tree with a height of 15 - 20 (25) m. It has a grey bark with shallow fissures. The twigs and the young leaves are red brown. The name f. inermis is a collective name for various spineless specimen of G. triacanthos. Therefore it is preferred when planting in streets and avenues. The compound leaf is circa 20 cm long and unfolds late. Its individual leaflets are circa 3 cm. In summer they are fresh green, in autumn golden yellow. After the flowering, crescent shaped pods appear and they can reach 45 cm. They turn from yellow green to brown red and persist well into winter. Winter hardiness zone: 5a
Our trees can only be planted when they don't have any leaves. Due to the this we will start delivering again from November 2024.
