Larix kaempferi 'Paper Lanterns' is an upright, deciduous conifer prized for its unique lantern-shaped cones and four-season interest. Soft green needles emerge in spring and summer, turning golden-orange in fall before dropping to reveal its attractive branching. Growing about 10 ft tall x 4 ft wide in 10 years, it prefers full sun and well-drained soil. A rare and beautiful specimen tree for collectors and landscapes.
