Pollinator value: Medium. Larval host to the American Dagger and several other moth species.
One of the tallest of the Eastern deciduous trees; gloriously large canopy needing a lot of space. Bark exfoliates to reveal creamy white bark underneath. Beautiful in a winter landscape. Massive crown of huge, crooked branches.
