| Author's Notes | Other than the weeping habit of this plant another special feature is the basal branches. These will spread and form a carpet at the base of the tree. I commonly see these plants sold in garden centers and most have the bottom branches removed. For this reason the plant is best bought from a nursery that has these plants growing in a field. You can request to have these branches on your plant. |
