It seems to be quite tricky to get success with.
The tree doesn't seem to mind cold and damp winters in the garden, but is
very reluctant to grow any leaves at all until daily temperature is peaking
well above 20C ( ie very late May or June ).

Hi Anthony,
At the moment I have a spring planted species about 1.5m tall with not a leave dropped, two heavy frosts so far. We are located in central Scotland and will keep you posted as to progress.
Our first sighting of this beautiful plant was in a town square in Switzerland(Valais) We observed over many summers and winters and was always stunning.
