“Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.” Stanley Horowitz
We have several huge Katsura trees in the back yard. They are luscious green in the spring and summer, and an absolutely stunning orange/yellow/red in the Autumn. They are at their best right now. Stunning.
The Katsura tree is a very distinctive landscape tree known for its delicate leaves and bright autumn colour. In autumn, the heart shaped leaves smell of burnt sugar when crushed, and the tree turns bright yellow, pink, and orange-red. The botanical name is Cercidiphyllum japonicum.
