A large vigorous deciduous conifer of upright growth forming a spire like conical crown for many years, with bright, lush green foliage turning a rich tawny-pink and old gold in autumn. The trunk usually becomes splendidly and sometimes spectacularly fluted, with cinnamon-brown bark. Caused a sensation when discovered as an undescribed new species in central China as recently as 1941, being introduced to the UK in 1947. Virtually any soil or site; this grows well across the UK, but at its happiest with access to reasonable moisture and away from serious exposure.
