Interesting ornamental form: twisted, contorted branching. Round-shaped, edible fruits, similar to Li. Fruits are reddish-brown when ripe, eaten firm and crunchy or room-dried to date-like chewy sweetness. Early fall harvest. Attractive, easy-to-grow tree: hardy, drought-resistant, virtually pest and disease free. Requires long, hot summer. Very low chilling requirement. Partly self-fruitful or pollinated by Lang.
