In spring, the finely cut leaves emerge a soft green with subtle yellow tones, creating a fresh and gentle display.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-start=\"701\" data-end=\"1057\"\u003eThrough summer, the foliage remains light green, adding a calm, airy presence to the garden, before turning warm shades of yellow and gold in autumn. As the leaves fall, ‘Bi-Hoo’ reveals its most distinctive feature—smooth, glowing bark in vivid tones of golden yellow to amber, which intensifies in colder weather and provides outstanding winter interest.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp data-start=\"1059\" data-end=\"1344\"\u003eIts upright, slightly vase-shaped habit forms a neat, compact tree, making it ideal for smaller gardens, borders, or container planting.
