Wow that’s a cracker! Strange there is no cones yet on it. You get male and female cones on the same tree. Mine is planted on its own.
Here’s a male cone -
The seeds go for crazy money online. They are still pretty rare.
Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.

Actually looking at yours Giles it looks like it has loads of cones on it!
The spikey round balls.

Yeah, you 100% right, thanks. They start at 12 feet above the ground, so not in my typical line of sight.......Doh...

This morning in Sonoma, CA:

My pink Camelia out front in full bloom. This one and one out in the backyard bloom for about 2months straight

@GraemeE - feels like there is something to come...

All the maples Japanese and otherwise in my yard are really starting to leaf out. Same with what I think is a wild cherry and a red bud?
Oh, and all the pictures are as clear as mud

Acer palmatum ‘Ukigumo’ - “floating clouds”
I got this end of the summer last year and somehow I kept it alive. All winter forgot about it quite a bit. It was on my front porch.
Starting to bud so thought I would get it planted before it’s too late…
It’s about two years old (I guess) hopefully in 5 to 10 it’ll look similar to the two pictures I posted with more of the white/light leaves

@northsouthdenimguy that reminds me to get some more trees for our garden. definitely something japanese in front of the house, and also some espalier trees towards the neighbours on one side.
