Botanical and cultivation features

The black horn can reach 20 m in height. It has arboreal or shrub-like growth. Initially oval or conical hair becomes increasingly glossy and irregular until it reaches a diameter of 8 m. The trunk is erect and smooth, with a brownish, smooth, tendon-like brisk bark that cracks in adult specimens. Leafy leafy plant, simple and two-sided, with alternative insertion, by a short petiole. The sprigs are brown with many lentils, first of small size, but later stretch to become more evident. The leaf foil is oval, with a pointed apex and a rounded or roped base (2x5 cm). The rib is pennin net, with a minimum of 12 ribs per side, from which there are tertiary ribs. The edge has a double tooth. The top, smooth and glossy, is of intense green, the lower, the clearer, initially pubescent, then becomes glabra. Monophonic plant with unisex inflorescences. Male inflorescences are represented by long hips of 5 to 12 cm, placed in groups of 2 -3. The stamens, of brown color, are very short in number ranging from 4 to 10. Female aches are more tepid, no longer than 5 cm and are at the top of the twigs. They become pendulous with the approximation of the flowering that occurs simultaneously with the appearance of the leaves in April of May. The fruit is an achenio with very thickened walls (nucula) of 1 to 2 cm in size, wrapped in light brattees. The fruits are assembled in typical ovoid infusions and pendants of 6 to 7 cm in length, very dense and compact, similar to those of the hops. In Italy it is diffused in all regions, especially in hilly and mountainous areas where it extends up to about 1000 m. It is particularly widespread in the Northeast and Adriatic regions. It is particularly associated with the roverella in forming xerophite and thermophilous forests. It favors drained soils, rich in limestone, adapting to the shallow ones as it has a rather superficial radical apparatus. In the mountains it develops on the most sheltered and sunny slopes as it is a heliophilous and thermophilous species, which fears the frosts. The black hare was, in recent years, also re-evaluated as an essence of landscaping interest, also given its poor substrate needs. In fact, it can enter into the formation of road trees, or barbing (exploiting its polloniferous capacity). In Central Europe, gardeners appreciate this species as an ornamental tree for the parks and gardens of the most temperate areas. The wood, more reddish than the white horn, finds its own application.
