Sorbus aria 'Lutescens', commonly known as the whitebeam 'Lutescens', is a striking deciduous tree valued for its silvery foliage and compact, upright form. In spring, its young leaves emerge a soft silvery-white before gradually maturing to a grey-green shade, creating a shimmering effect in the landscape. This medium-sized tree typically grows to around 30–40 feet (9–12 meters) in height, making it an excellent choice for urban settings, gardens, and avenues. Clusters of creamy-white flowers appear in late spring, attracting pollinators, followed by small, orange-red berries in autumn that provide food for birds. As the season progresses, the foliage turns golden-yellow, adding further seasonal interest. Sorbus aria 'Lutescens' thrives in well-drained soils and is highly tolerant of wind, drought, and urban pollution, making it a versatile and low-maintenance choice for a variety of landscapes.
