Discover the stunning Cercidiphyllum japonicum, also known as the Katsura Tree or Toffee Apple Tree. This attractive large shrub or small tree features beautiful heart-shaped leaves that transform into subtle hues of pale yellow and smoky pink in autumn. A unique characteristic of this tree is its sweet fragrance when its leaves are crushed, reminiscent of burnt sugar, which gives it the 'Toffee Apple Tree' name. Originally from Japan and China and introduced to the UK in 1881, it makes a stunning specimen plant for any lawn or can be grown as a broader tree. It also works well when pruned at the rear of a border. Supplied as a large specimen in approximately 7-10 litre containers.
