Council data indicates approximately 25 m high and 8 m spread, with a conical/columnar/upright canopy form. Its noted amenity value is interesting bark. Its recorded local performance is very reliable. Final selection should still account for available soil volume, services, exposure and the mature canopy required on the site.
