Hackberry

Celtis occidentalis

Hackberry is known for its attractive bark that is corky and rough in texture.
The bright green elm-like foliage turns to a soft yellow in the fall, and the fruits are relished by wildlife.
With a round open form, it grows at a moderate to rapid rate.
Extremely hardy, and adaptable to a range of urban environments including alkaline soils, drought, and windy conditions.
