Heart shaped, deep green leaves on this unusual deciduous tree that grows upto 15m tall by 10m wide. In may and June it has small, spherical greeny brown flowers surrounded by huge white bracts that hang down like handkerchiefs, hence it's common name 'Handkerchief Tree'. Moist but well drained soil. Can take 10 or more years before they start flowering. Well worth the wait!
