I think (will not swear to this) that I read somewhere that it's one
of those trees that if you cut it back hard all the time, the leaves
will come out absolutely huge, making quite an effect in the garden. Of course, if you do that, you'll never get flowers.

I have heard the same, and have contemplated getting 6-8 liners to
grow as a screen for a rather ugly fence in my far backyard. Apparently
if you coppice it, it puts out many new sprouts which grow like
gangbusters; just what I envision as a perfect screen.
