Wonderful! The pictures look really nice, but Botanica is occasionally
wrong on zones. However, it also depends on which Dirr book you are
reading. I understand that some of his books use Sunset zones while others
use USDA.

Dirr says z4 - 8. Give it a try. I was successful in MD, which is 6b,
but have seen them in 5a for sure.

The only book I have handy is Botannica.  It says Zones 6-9 for
Cercidiphyllum japonicum.  But it has been wrong a time or three.
Speaking
of hardiness, our MG nursery took a chance on a couple of items
that were
borderline and lost.  We lost all our Tricolor Hypericum,
Leptodermis, and
Vitex.

Are you sure Kitty? I have seen what I believe to be these around

Weeping Katsura (Cercidiphyllum japonicum 'Pendula'), for my money.
Gorgeous, graceful tree with wonderful fall color - slow grower


reaching



15 - 25' tall and 15' wide.  Might be larger than you've
envisioning



but



it does grow slowly.

Opinion time:

If you could only have ONE weeping tree... which one would it be?

Looking for something that could handle sun, although would be
blocked
from the dreaded afternoon stuff here. DH put up a fence corner
by the
driveway/sidewalk. Thought a weeping something might look good
there,



so
don't need it to get humongous.
