It makes a perfectly decent, bushy, deciduous tree which doesn't get outrageously tall. It has dark green leaves but stands out in late spring and early summer when it has lashings of gently scented, creamy white flowers. Even better, the leaves turn deep dark purple red in autumn. Large and fast growing; most soils and situations, including coasts and cities, are fine.
