Bright to mid-green leaves turn bright yellow in the autumn months before falling. Its fine foliage and shrubby habit give it a soft appearance in the garden. This is a thornless variety of Gleditsia.

Uses A slow-growing deciduous tree, 'Elegantissima' makes an excellent choice for small gardens. With its compact nature, this variety is ideal as a courtyard tree and the bushy habit also lends itself to being used as a screening tree. A great specimen tree. Also great in streetscapes, due to its small growth habit.
