The tree puts out insignificant catkins in early spring followed by attractive seed pods that resemble hops. Chartreuse colored, birch like leaves persist through the summer until autumn where they turn a yellow-brown and abscise. Ironwood is also an understory tree that will grow in part shade, is virtually disease and insect resistant, and tolerates a wide range of growing conditions, including: drought and clay tolerant, deer resistant and is great on hillsides or rocky slopes. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eOstrya virginiana\u003c\/i\u003e is an Iowa native.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TimberPine","offers":[{"title":"1\"","offer_id":48248755486969,"sku":"HOPAME015100","price":379.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.5\"","offer_id":48248755519737,"sku":"HOPAME015150","price":389.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/4435\/9929\/files\/American_Hophornbeam1__63802.1769119491.386.513.jpg?v=1775337563","url":"https:\/\/shop.timberpine.com\/products\/hophornbeam-american","provider":"TimberPine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
