Net-leaf Hackberry is a medium to large tree, growing to 15 by 25 feet with an unusual and scraggly but attractive form for a desert tree. It produces firm, purplish berries and provides a good nesting substrate, with whitish, knobby wood and leathery foliage that is eaten by many insects and caterpillars. This tree is deer resistant, growing in full sun and moist soils.
