Second only to ginseng in traditional Chinese medicine, this rare and unusual tree is the last member of its genus. As its name suggests, this is the only temperate latex bearing tree producing 3-4% latex rubber. Quick growing, making it a wonderful shade ornamental 20 meter tall tree with its thick glossy attractive elm like dark green leaves. Very nice pale grey bark. Low slung branches make a 10 meter diameter spread. Pest free.
