Japanese Larch tree Larix Kaempferi
Introduced from its native Japan in the 1860`s, the Japanese Larch tree Larix Kaempferi is a fast-growing, non-evergreen (deciduous) conifer. It is a medium sized tree with a broadly conical form. The bright green soft needles turn a spectacular orange-yellow in autumn before falling. Adept at coping with poor and/or acid soil.
A medium sized tree, so expect a height of up to 6m (20 foot) after 10 years.

Ornamental Tree Roots In The Shade e.g. Behind A Fence
It is more important that that foliage (posh term for leaves) receives the sunlight than the roots. So if the canopy of your ornamental tree can sunbathe but the bottom of your tree thinks there has been a nuclear winter then that is ok. You might want to ensure you have good drainage as water and no sun is the start of algae and other such issues.

Planting In The Corner Of A Garden
Air and light is reduced in this location which could promote fungus and bacterial issues. If the corner is of the house and a fence then you also have leeching issues to contend with from cement and wood preservatives. Also when it rains, that area would experience higher water levels so we advise against it unless the plant is very hardy.
