Alnus incana ‘Aurea’ is a large, conical-shaped plant that produces yellow leaves in the spring, which mature to yellow-green in the summer before turning yellow in the autumn. The young branches are orange-yellow, providing a stunning display in the winter months. During the early to mid-spring, it produces red-pink catkins that serve as a source of pollen for bees. Furthermore, Alnus incana ‘Aurea’ can fix nitrogen in the soil, which is beneficial for improving soil conditions for other plants. Alnus incana is deciduous and native to various regions across the Northern Hemisphere. Learn more about Alnus incana. Alnus incana ‘Aurea’ was raised in Germany in the late-1800s, and potentially released into commerce in 1892.
