A new weeping palmate, like a waterfall of stars, offers incredible possibilities with its great vigor and totally weeping form. I first saw this tree in a container on top of a pedestal cascading down 3'below the container! As vigorously growing as the species, consider staking to create an 'S'curve for vertical structure. Excellent sun and heat tolerance.

Ryusen is later to emerge than most weeping trees and therefore more suited to climates with late spring freezes. This tree would be lovely next to a water effect, a wonderful addition to any garden.
