    Reminds me of the same colour of the emerging foliage of Koelreuteria paniculata here at the Garden. Possible to get a closer image of the foliage?

    I think that's correct. Sadly, we don't have a close-up of the leaves. If this is Koereuteria, do you know if this tree would transplant well? We'd be looking to move it in the spring. Thanks!

    That tree is far too large and old to move!
