Arboriculture
Cercidiphyllum japonicum - Katsura Tree
2nd November 2007

British Native trees and shrubs are my usual trees of choice and most of my garden is managed for wildlife. But since starting the arb course one non-native has grabbed my imagination; Cercidiphyllum japonicum, The Katsura tree. I bought this one from Trees Online. This is a good shopping site for trees but you have to endure their cretinous newsletters for ever after.
