Gleditsia triacanthos var. inermis 'Sunburst'
Gleditsia triacanthos var. inermis ‘Sunburst’ is a luminous and structuring ornamental tree particularly prized for its brilliant golden-yellow foliage in spring and summer, which instantly brightens up flowerbeds, avenues or large gardens while creating a warm and contemporary ambiance. Like all thornless varieties, it has no thorns, making it perfect for frequented areas. Its rounded to slightly spreading habit and light foliage allow light to filter through while offering gentle shade, ideal for relaxation areas or group plantings. In autumn, the leaflets take on subtle golden to bronze hues, enriching the seasonal spectacle. Very hardy and tolerant of a variety of well-drained soils, Gleditsia ‘Sunburst’ thrives in full sun to partial shade and combines color, ease of maintenance and landscape performance, making it an excellent choice as an accent tree, specimen or structural element in residential or public green spaces.
