Description

The Morioka Weeping Katsura gives you more than one season of interest, which makes it a rewarding choice for a landscape that needs lasting beauty. In spring, the leaves emerge with a reddish purple cast, then soften to blue-green in summer before shifting again in fall to bright yellow with hints of orange and apricot. Its habit also changes over time, growing more vertically when young and becoming more strongly weeping with age. With 12-15" of growth a year, full sun performance and Zone 4 hardiness, this deciduous tree offers color, movement and a distinctive presence that keeps the garden feeling fresh. Brings Changing Color Through the Growing SeasonMorioka Weeping Katsura helps your garden feel more alive because its foliage does not stay the same from spring to fall. New leaves open with a reddish purple cast, bringing an early flush of color just as the season begins. In summer, that look softens to blue-green, giving the tree a cooler, calmer presence. Fall adds another highlight with bright yellow tones touched with orange and apricot. That steady change gives you more visual reward from one planting and helps the landscape hold your attention for a longer stretch of the year. Adds a Softer, More Graceful Shape Over TimeA weeping tree can change the mood of a garden in the best way, and Morioka Weeping Katsura does that with an informal habit that feels relaxed and elegant at once. It grows vertically when young, then develops a stronger weeping form as it matures. That means you get a plant that continues to add character as the years go by. Its larger, puckered leaves also set it apart, giving the tree added texture that makes the overall look feel richer and more distinctive. Rewards a Sunny Spot with Color and PerformanceWhen placed in full sun, Morioka Weeping Katsura offers its best color and growth, helping you get the most from the space you give it. Its steady growth rate of 12-15 inches a year gives it enough momentum to make an impact without feeling unruly too quickly. Hardy to Zone 4, it also gives many gardeners a dependable way to add a special focal point with seasonal color, graceful structure and lasting value.
