emarginated

Updated: May 17, 2025

The yellow color is paler and the petals are smoother. Later, in the fall, on the weaker side branches these differences increase. The laevifolia petals become smaller and are often not emarginated at the apex, becoming ovate instead of obcordate. This shape is often the most easily recognized and most striking mark of the variety.
