The Katsura is a deciduous tree with a moderate to fast growth rate. It is of medium height, making it better suited to the average urban or suburban property than a very tall tree, such as the American beech tree (Fagus grandifolia).
One may also ask, how do you prune a weeping katsura tree? Keep the roots consistently damp the first 3 or 4 seasons, then soak deeply once a week if the weather is hot and dry. Prune off any branches that attempt to grow straight up, and shorten any too-long branches to maintain a pleasing shape. Usually, little to no pruning needed.

Plant the Katsura tree near your front door or patio to share its beauty with visitors all year long.
