Hackberry 'Celtis Occidentalis'

Hackberry is a hardy, native deciduous tree prized for its resilience and low-maintenance character. Celtis occidentalis thrives in diverse soil conditions and tolerates drought, poor drainage, and urban pollution with ease. This medium to large tree develops an attractive vase-shaped canopy with fine-textured foliage that turns golden-yellow in fall. Small purple-black berries attract wildlife and birds throughout autumn and winter. Ideal for shade, windbreaks, or naturalized landscapes, hackberry establishes quickly and requires minimal pruning once established. A dependable choice for challenging sites where other trees struggle.
