A stunning tree Balcony....we planted one of these in our garden in Spain....it grew a bit stunted though, lack of water I think...........

I must agree with you, Janey, it is indeed a stunning tree! Sorry to here about your tree being stunted but as you say the lack of sufficient water well may be the cause. As you can see from the photos this tree is growing near the edge of a pond so it will therefore get all the water it could possibly want.

Yes....perfect location for it....I remember the leaves are a pretty triangle shape too??

Lovely really lives up to its name doesnt it!

Here in this photo is where its true shape & height are best seen. The other one where it reflects in the water of the pond is "artificial". It has grown low over the water but this is its real hight & width.
