A delicate yet sturdy tree which is utterly enchanting when backlit by the sun. Its dainty foliage emerges a breezy, luminous yellow, gradually ripening to yellow green by end of summer, then warming again to golden tones through the autumn. Gleditsia is deep rooting and tolerates pavements well, making it a good choice for the small front gardens of urban townhouses, its airy, ascending branches providing delightful outlook over many stories. 'Sunburst' tends to have a rather 'free-spirited' growth habit, particularly in windy positions, which can be embraced to great effect for naturalistic, multistem planting. However it can also be very effective as a standard (single trunk) form with good formative pruning and occasional maintenance pruning as required. H6
