It is a deciduous tall tree of the genus Triadica in the family Euphorbiaceae, native to China.

Its beautiful autumn foliage and white winter berries make it a popular choice for street trees and park trees.

Its fruits ripen around autumn, eventually covered by a dark brown husk (seed coat).

As winter arrives, the husk splits open, revealing three white seeds that pop out like popcorn.

White in winter reminds one of snow. Its chic and adorable appearance is endlessly captivating.

The fruits and seeds remain on the branches for a long time, so their long-lasting enjoyment is also appealing.
