Council data indicates approximately 8 m high and 4 m spread, with a conical/columnar/upright canopy form. Its noted amenity value is prominent flowers. 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.
