'Fastigiata' is a semi-dwarf, columnar tree with ascending branches, which are coverd in lush, dark green foliage. This compact little tree is sturdy and holds up well in the winter cold and snow. The columnar habit is unusual to the species, setting this variety apart and making it fit in any landscape. A ten-year-old 'Fastigiata' is approximately six feet tall by two feet wide. Zone 2-7
