How tall is your tree? It really looks great. Do the leaves touch the ground?

Pins,
The tree is about 5ft tall with a weeping habit, a couple to the branches do touch the ground. I bought the tree about 3years ago at a local home depot in the fall. It had a broken limb and they gave me 50% off because of it. Total price I payed was 150.00. Were the limb was broken, it branched beautifully. In the spring and summer it's a very bold purplish color and turns this brilliant red ing the fall.

Wow Gary what a great find! What've you got planted there in front of it? Nice contrast in foliage effect.

All quiet on the home front. Calm before the storm? LOL That's pretty funny, the disgarden. I have an area like that myself, along the backyard fence. Hoping it turns out as well as yours.

My disgarden turned into the best garden on my property. Just goes to show you that planning doesn't always mean a great looking garden.
