Yellowhorn is a much overlooked, but truly special tree. A small, deciduous tree with edible, dark green leaves that turn bright yellow in autumn, it is both beautiful and useful. The white with red or yellow center flowers are fragrant and edible, and provide a lovely addition to a salad. The seeds are also used for food, and it is a great nectar plant, especially for bees. It has a fairly long life span, and can be grown as a small tree of a shrub, excellent for lining a driveway or patio with it's beautiful big clusters of flowers.

It can tolerate very dry conditions once established, making it a great tree for areas prone to drought.
