Large tree, similar to P. alba: lvs. thick, on long shoots of mature trees large (4-6 in. long), triangular-ovate, not lobed, the broad base truncate or subeordate, acuminate, margin sparingly sinuate-toothed, shining dark green above and glabrescent beneath; on short shoots small, ovate or triangular, cuneate, sinuate- toothed, glabrous beneath; on vigorous shoots white- tomentose beneath. N. China, where it makes a large tree, and is planted in temple gardens; the restless lvs. suggest the sound of falling rain.
