|discussion=<p>Variety alabamensis has obovate leaf blades, much broader than <i></i>var.<i> serotina</i>. The apices are usually obtuse, rounded, or rounded-emarginate, sometimes short-acute or short-acuminate. Branchlets and, sometimes, raceme axes are rusty-hairy; abaxial surfaces of leaf blades have scattered, rusty hairs. The trees are said to leaf out two weeks later than <i></i>var.<i> serotina</i> and to hold their leaves much longer in the fall (C. L. Brown and L. K. Kirkman 1990).</p>
