Hello everyone, I'm looking to acquire a Katsura tree for the collection. So if anyone has any seedlings or stock let me know, or if you've seen any at nurseries or centres around Melbs any info would be hugely appreciated.

Regards.

You could try Yamina rare plants in Monbulk 9756 6335. Katsura are a little difficult to propagate so availability will be limited.I have quite an old one in my garden but have never tried to propagate from it.

Shibui has a few katsura from layers and cuttings. I grew them to try to graft the weeping form but can't get it to take. I have small trees in 15cm pots.
