Mystery Deciduous

Common Name: Korean Hornbeam

Story of the Tree

I purchased this tree at my first Kusamura club potting party, from the garden of Sandy and John Planting. When I acquired it, it had no leaves and was simply called a "mystery deciduous." A month later, the leaves opened up — and the mystery solved itself.
