Amur Cork Tree
Description
Amur cork tree is an attractive deciduous tree that reaches 40' tall and 25-30' wide. It does best in full to part sun. Bark looks like cork and branches spread wide. Long, thin, dark green, compound leaves are aromatic when crushed (smells like turpentine). Small yellow green flowers appear in May and June. It has a tropical look because of the foliage and cork-like, gray-tan bark.
