A small deciduous tree or a large shrub. Dicotyledonous plant. Before barbed wire was invented, these trees were used as natural hedges in livestock pastures. Grown in direct sunlight, but is unpretentious to growing conditions. The tree grows about 9-18 m tall, blooms with peculiar greenish flowers, which form orange-like fruits (15 cm in diameter, 400-500 g). In autumn, the fruit turns yellow, just as the leaves of the tree turn golden yellow. Unfortunately, the fruit is not edible, but it has many healing properties. 4th hardiness zone. Blooms in July. Decorative and very interesting plant.
