The 'Asplenifolia' is a wonderfully compact tree which features deeply cut light green leaves that fade to orange for a stunning autumn display. The upright branches hold comymbs of tiny white flowers which later become glossy orange-red berries. The berries are popular with thrushes and blackbirds and this tree is therefore a great choice for attracting wildlife to your garden.
