With a mature height of 6-8m, this is often regarded as a large shrub/small tree. The branches are upright when young but are fast growing so soon become arching and graceful.

Providing year-round interest with rich green pointed leaves, clusters of small creamy-white flowers in June and masses of bright red berries in autumn which the birds will love, this tree is often used as a screening tree in smaller gardens.

This is only semi-evergreen when grown in a sheltered location. It prefers well drained soils and planting in groups with similar species increases the production of fruit.
