[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Parrotia persica (Persian Ironwood) is a deciduous tree in the family Hamamelidaceae, the sole species in the genus Parrotia but closely related to the genus Hamamelis (Witch-hazels). It is native to northern Iran, where it is endemic in the Alborz mountains.
The leaves are glossy green, turning a rich purple to brilliant red in autumn colours.
