Cercidiphyllum japonicum 'Yuki's Yellow' Yuki's Yellow Katsura

Another fine katsura that now resides happily in the collection here amongst the dozen or so other cultivars we are playing with. Little is known about this selection but we have been excited by its golden spring flush of growth and good vigor. The vibrancy it adds to the garden in spring is quite welcome as is the clean foliage that persists into summer and fall. Though the intensity of the foliage color wanes to green as summer’s heat sets in, the seasonality of fall often brings back illuminating yellows burnished with a touch of pink. Like so many of the rarities here at the nursery, we continue to learn about their virtues through direct experience. ‘Yuki’s Yellow’ is very much one of these plants that we are actively learning about while making available so that you can do the same.
