Buy Kawakami Taiwanese Hornbeam online. This elegant and graceful tree is native to Taiwan, where it is an especially tough specimen, growing in rocky forest conditions. It can even be found growing in the crevices of the native limestone rocks! Young branches can appear arching to weeping, but it is considered to be an upright growing tree. Small, ovate and serrated, green leaves adorn the tree from spring into fall where fall color can be shades of yellow. A unique specimen!
