    Is there a palmatum, hopefully one whose lobes are not too deeply divided, that weeps?
    I could swear I ran across one this past week while browsing vendors but now cannot find it for the life of me.
    If not truly weeping, at least easily trained to a very wide, multi-layered canopy?
    I am Zone 6b, and the site I have in mind receives sun from 9am until about 11am, then a bit of dappled light the rest of the day.
    There is ample space for a tall tree but my vision is something I can keep under six feet or so.

    Failing that, what might be a good weeping dissectum with not too finely divided leaves?
    I'd like a good bright green but don't much care what color it opens or closes the season with.

    Note: Davidsan, the Golden Full Moon you cautioned me against buying in '10 is doing well!
