I bought a specimen Hogyoku 4 years ago and it is in full shade. It's medium green blends in with the native trees very well thru the spring and summer but reliably every fall turns the spectacular yellow-orange for which it is famous. Something caught my eye the other day and when I turned my head one branch of leaves had turned a spectacular orange-red (see photo). This is in mid-June. Does this mean it is stressed, or just doing its fall early? and is it going to lose that branch? The amazing thing is it NEVER turns that color in the fall although the usual pumpkin hue is just as nice. I have never seen color this fiery on any JM, red or otherwise, in the summer.
