A really delicate leaf shape @caroline . @tiggrx @justin @kathy @richard.spicer.7906 @greenfingersltd do you have any ideas on what this tree could be? 😄

Brilliant thank you @tiggrx, just looked this up and I think you are right. I would love to get one but it says branches can be brittle and break! Anyone got any experience of this -Gardentaggers?

There are a few of these trees around London turning beautiful Autumn colours. A type of willow maybe? But the leaves are opposite not alternate. Any ideas please?
