Celtis occidentalis is a hardy, medium-to-large deciduous tree native to North America, typically reaching 40 to 60 feet. It features a rounded crown with arching branches and distinctive, corky, warty bark. The rough-textured, asymmetrical green leaves turn a subtle yellow in autumn. Highly adaptable, it thrives in moist soils but tolerates drought and urban pollution. Its small, purple drupes are a vital food source for birds, making it an ideal choice for wildlife gardens and streetscapes.
