Cercidiphyllum Japonicum
A round-headed deciduous tree to 20metres. Masses of tiny pinkish flowers on bare branches in Spring. Red flushed heart-shaped green leaves turn flaming red and orange in autumn. The fallen leaves emit a sweet caramelly, sugary, biscuity scent when disturbed. In their native China and Japan, they grow in forest edges and wooded river margins. A shallow rooted tree, happy on any soil, best in south and west facing positions. Germinated seedlings can sometimes be found on bare soil around the tree.
