Carpinus Japonica 

The popular Japanese hornbeam has beautiful distinctive foliage,  large ornamental hanging fruit and light colored bark. The leaves turn clear yellow in autumn and suddenly drop. Fruit pods develop in spring, even on young specimens, and have a reddish  blush during the summer. They persist until autumn when they  turn tan and often last through the winter. The vigor of these  seedlings is outstanding and trunks will soon thicken to make  fine individual specimens. The roots quickly develop a fibrous  root system. A great species for shohin bonsai. Create your own  miniature Japanese hornbeam forest.
