hi, Anyone know the name of this weeping tree ? Found this weeping tree in my neighbour's front yard but he does not know the name as well, so would like to know the name so I can go to nearby nursery to see if i can find ( will be great if you know where to get it in the lower mainland, I am in Coquitlam, BC), I can email the full size photo if needed.
Weeping cultivar of Japanese snowdrop tree - you can even see the characteristic pellet-like fruits of this species.
Thanks Ron. I visited a local nursery with the name you provided and they came up with a 'weeping snowbell'. I am not too sure if snowdrop and snowbell are the same though they said YES, since the 'snowbell' they have in a 20 gallons pot seems more like a upright tree than a weeping tree ( I forgot to take a photo ), plus the 'snowbell' in the nursery I saw does not have leaves yet while my neighbour's 'snowdrop' has the full developed leaves already.
The 'Carillon' cultivar is the usual one, making the tree asked about very likely to be it. http://www.bing.com/images/search?q...tyrax+carillon&qpvt=styrax+carillon&FORM=IGRE
