An old cultivar that grows into a large tree with a broad, pyramidal crown. A few very heavy main branches often grow from the heavy trunk and on those irregular lateral branches grow. The bark remains thin for a long time, and later develops deep grooves. The young, emerging leaves have a remarkable bright yellow colour that turns greener later. Due to its light leaves, this tree gives the impression in the summer that it is less than healthy. The autumn colour is orange-yellow to yellow. The large leaves have a short, tapered top and serrated edge. Yellowish white flowers appear in early summer, growing 3 to 11 together in pendulous umbels. 'Wratislaviensis' is prone to aphid infestation, resulting in honeydew and sooty mould.
