Explore the resilient beauty of Celtis laevigata var. reticulata, commonly known as Netleaf Hackberry or Western Hackberry. This adaptable tree flourishes across varied terrains, from the rugged landscapes of the Great Basin and the Southwest to as far north as Idaho and Washington. Growing up to 53 feet in optimal conditions, it can be an overstory dominant in diverse ecosystems, offering valuable food and cover for birds and mammals, and essential shade and materials for native peoples.

With light brown, dense wood, Netleaf Hackberry is perfect for crafting furniture, crates, and barrels. This tree is not just a botanical beauty; it's an ecological powerhouse, contributing to soil stabilization and providing habitat for big game in riparian and gallery forests. The sweet, edible fruit was traditionally an important dietary element for Native Americans and still attracts wildlife that assists in seed dispersal.

Ideal for urban landscaping, this drought-tolerant tree is perfect for yards, patios, and streetscapes. Its slender, reddish-brown twigs and thick, textured bark create a visually striking addition to any landscape. Embrace the rich heritage and hardiness of the Netleaf Hackberry—a true testament to nature's resilience.
