Field Notes

Description:

An ornamental tree with increasing popularity, spotted growing in my neighbourhood, Nea Demetrias, Volos city, Greece.

Notes:

The species is used as an ornamental plant. It tolerates disturbance and air pollution, so it has been useful as a landscaping plant on roadsides. It is a pioneer species that easily fills forest clearings, and it has been considered for reforestation efforts
