Cercidiphyllum japon. 'Morioka Weeping'

Cercidiphyllum japonicum ‘Morioka Weeping’ is a rare weeping form that differs from C. j. ‘Pendula’ in that it has larger, puckered leaves and an informal habit. Spring leaves emerge with a reddish purple cast that softens to blue-green in summer. Great fall color includes bright yellow with hints of orange and apricot. The tree grows vertically when young and matures to a more strongly weeping form with age. Best color and growth in full sun. From Brookside Gardens, Wheaton, Maryland.
