The lovely white flowers of this variety are said to lie flatter (to 3" across) ; its fall color may be an even finer (is that possible?!) reds yellows; a wonderful 20-40' tree with handsome peeling bark. PSh/Med

This is close to a perfect tree for the garden: 12-15 ', good camellia type flower in early summer, scarlet fall color and peeling bark leaving smooth silky trunk. Zone 6
