Celebrated for its attractive, glossy green foliage and small, fragrant yellowish flowers, this plant is particularly valued for its compact and upright growth form, making it an excellent choice for urban landscaping, including street trees and ornamental gardens. This tree is also notable for its non-invasive roots and its ability to produce bright orange fruits, which add decorative appeal and attract wildlife.
