Watnong 5/20/06

Watnong is a lovely cascading dissectum (very similar, in my mind, to Baldsmith). The spring leaves are sometimes a vivid red changing to a lighter red and green in the summertime, with bright red leaves in the autumn. However, you can see from this photo that on May 20, this tree decided to hint at what's to come by showing some red on its leaves. It's not the only cultivar to do so, and this trait adds drama to the landscape.
