Cercidiphyllum japonicum,Sieb.& Zucc. Fig. 881. Bushy tree, commonly with several trunks, usually 20-30 ft., but sometimes rising to 100 ft., with slender, glabrous branches: lvs. opposite, occasionally alternate, slender-petioled, cordate, orbicular or broadly ovate, obtuse, crenate-serrate, glabrous, glaucous beneath. 2-3 in. long. Japan. G.F. 7:106, 107, and 6:53. Mn. 3:74. Gng. 5:135. F.E. 32:211 (habit). P.G. 2:105. S.I.F. 1:41. —A very desirable tree, one of the best introductions from Japan. Var. sinense, Rehd. & Wilson. Tree, to 120 ft., usually with a single trunk: petioles shorter, about ¾ in. long, somewhat hairy on the veins beneath: caps, gradually narrowed at the apex, ½ in. long. W. China.—This recently intro. variety is perhaps still more desirable than the type. It is the largest of all broad-lvd. trees known from China; the trunk is sometimes free of branches for nearly 50 ft. above the ground and attains to 25 ft. or exceptionally to 55 ft. in girth.
