Carpinus japonica 'Silver Lace' - Silver Lace Japanese Hornbeam
$35.00Out of stock
An amazing and nearly unobtainable selection of Japanese hornbeam that has been one of the most asked about plants in our secret stash of stock material.

Plants have the durability of a hornbeam yet offer a garden presence matched by few peers. Growing considerably slower than the species we anticipate plants will develop into large shrubs with ultimate dimensions that fall in the 10-15' range. Learn More
